Day 30: 11/30

Wow are we already at Day 30? Time just flies doesn't it!? And Clockwork Prince is literally right around the corner! So, to celebrate that we are getting super close to the release date, I have decided to share one of the tenderest moments of the book:

She turned, but Jem had already appeared at her side, and he pushed the window open. As the dark shape fluttered inside, it flew straight for Tessa. She raised her hands and caught it out of the air, feeling the sharp metal wings flutter against her palms. As she held it, they closed, and its eyes closed too. Once more, its metal sword quietly, as if waiting to be wakened again. Tick-tick went against her fingers.
Jem turned from the open window, the wind ruffling his hair. In the yellow light, it shone like white gold. "What is it?"
Tessa smiled. "My angel," she said.


I absolutely love this quote, and how Cassie Clare relates the angel necklace to the title. I heard she does the same in CP. So what are your thoughts? What do you think the "clockwork prince" could be? Until next time!

Love always,
The Red Queen

  1. Awww I love that scene!! If you squint and tilt your head just right, it almost sounds like she's calling Jem her angel! But maybe that's just my diehard Team Jem side coming out :)

    I don't know who the "prince" could be. The obvious choice would be Jem since he's on the cover, but then Will would've been the angel in CA and that's definitely not the case. So I honestly have know idea! Just for kicks and giggles, my wild guess is...Henry!! Because he's awesome!! And it does fit when you think about it.

    Lovin' every post! Keep up the good work!
