What We know about The Lost Book of The White

-
Life is good for Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood. They're living together in a fabulous loft, their warlock son, Max, has started learning to walk, and the streets of New York are peaceful and quiet—as peaceful and quiet as they ever are, anyway.

Until the night that two old acquaintances break into Magnus's apartment and steal the powerful Book of the White. Now Magnus and Alec will have to drop everything to get it back. They need to follow the thieves to Shanghai, they need to call some backup to accompany them, and they need a babysitter.

Also, someone has stabbed Magnus with a strange magical weapon, and the wound is glowing, so they have that to worry about too.

Fortunately, their backup consists of Clary, Jace, Isabelle, and newly-minted Shadowhunter Simon. In Shanghai, they learn that a much darker threat awaits them. Magnus's magic is growing unstable, and if they can't stop the demons flooding into the city, they might have to follow them all the way back to the source—to the very realm of the dead. Can they stop the threat to the world? Will they make it back home before their kid completely wears out Alec's mom?

The Lost Books of The White is set to be released on 1st September, and I can't be more excited. This book is the second in the Eldest Curse series by Cassandra Clare and Wesley Chu and takes place after the events of The Red Scrolls of Magic.

In The Red Scrolls of Magic, Magnus and Alec travel to Paris for a romantic getaway; instead, they are faced with problems as an old cult, Crimson Hand, formed by Magnus, has a new leader. After meeting the Crimson Hand, Magnus and Alec return to the New York Institute only to continue their trip. 

Now in The Lost Book of White, as we know from the synopsis and teasers, they are in Shanghai along the rest of the TMI gang, and the Book of White has been stolen from Magnus.

So here are a few things we know before the release of the book: 
  • The story revolves around Magnus and Alec and takes place around 2010. As we get to know that Simon is still mourning for the death of George Lovelace. 
  • Jace, Clary, Isabella, and Simon also accompany Magnus and Alec to Shanghai ( and from their conversations in the teaser, I can tell they are going to make this book funny enough). 
  • Since we are talking about shanghai, Jem Carstairs will also be there and will face past demons, and we get to know more about Jem before Will and The Infernal Devices. 
  • Catarina Loss, Lily Chen, and Maryse Lightwood have also appeared in the teasers. 
  • In one of the teasers ( More like a one-line that says "Ragnor lives"), we get to know how Ragnor lives or how he was saved. 
  • I read somewhere that Jem and Tessa's wedding will also be featured, and we will know the reason why none of the attendees remember their wedding (except Magnus and them, of course)

  AUTHOR - Rebecca Yarros RATINGS -  ☆☆☆☆ TROPES - ✔️ Dragons ✔️ Academia setting (war college) ✔️ High fantasy ✔️ Chronic illness rep ✔️ Enemies to lovers ✔️ Slow burn AMAZON INDIA LINK SYNOPSIS Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from  USA Today  bestselling author Rebecca Yarros.

But when you're smaller than everyone else, and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don't bond to "fragile" humans. They incinerate them.

As you all might know, it's June which mean it's Pride month! 🏳‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 Pride Month is the month where we celebrate the lives of those people part of the LGBTQ+ community. I read a few new LGBTQ+ books this month, and I've read many from before as well. I read one of the books I am going to mention like 2-3 days ago only, and yes, I liked that book that much for it to make it onto my favourites instantly).  I thought if I can make my bullet journal pride-themed I can also do a blog post on my favourite LGBTQ+ Books! Now this list would not specifically contain only LGBTQ+ romance. It'll have a book that showcases the LGBTQ+ community even though the main plot does not revolve around their romance.  Most of the LGBTQ+ books I have read on Wattpad, and I might be making a recommendation on that soon, but all of the books I am going to mention here are the ones that are actually published books.  1. Red White and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston  "History, huh? Bet we ...

Chain of Gold Book Review ( Spoiler Alert!!)

-
Image
  I know I'm pretty late to do this since the book came out in March, and as of now, it's August, but I am still gonna do it.  The Chain of Gold is the first book in The Last Hours series and is set in Edwardian London and is the next generation story of The Infernal Devices series, which is set in Victorian London.  The book is mostly written from the point of Cordelia Carstairs, who is the female main character. Other main characters include James and Lucie Herondale, Thomas and Christopher Lightwood, Matthew Fairchild, Jesse, Grace Blackthorn, and Alastair Carstairs.  We were first introduced to this era in Tales from Shadowhunter Academy, where Tessa tells us about James and how he can slip in as shadows due to his demonic origins from his mother's side ( Tessa is his mother). We are also told about how Matthew and James become Parabatai.  Then in a few bonus chapters from Cassandra claire before the book's release,k we were told about the relationship of H...

Must Read Classics

        Little Women, Louisa May Alcott T his classic was published by Louisa May Alcott in 2 volumes, one in 1968 and the other in 1969. This story deals with the story of 4 girls Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March. They live with their mother in Massachusetts  in poverty while their father is away for the war. It is a story written about the adventure, mistakes, and experiments of the four girls. I enjoyed reading this because of the fun the girls have and how they discover various aspects of life. Like me, Jo is a little tomboyish and enjoys to write, Meg was the eldest and is beautiful, Amy is still in school, but I find her a little bit dramatic, and Beth is the timid piano player. The March sisters had a neighbor Laurie which made the entire reading more fun with his black eyes and curly black hair. He was adopted by his grandfather and was being tutored by John Brooks to enter Harvard. You will definitely have bipolar moods reading this one. The recent mov...

5 Must-Reads for Teens

1. Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Rick Riordan   This book was my first ever book into the fantasy and teen fiction books. This book is filled with adventures of Demigods and centaurs and cyclopes and also with our sassy and funny protagonist Percy Jackson. This series takes you through the journey of Percy and his friends from stealing Zeus's lightning to holding the sky and going through the labyrinth. If you have already read this, you can read the excellent spin-off series The Heroes of Olympus, which has even more funny and sassy characters. The book is recommended for children above 12 and is like one of the best series that made me laugh and sometimes cry ( if you read the other spin-off, that's The Apollo Trials, no spoilers). But this is one of the best novel series I have ever read. 2. The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins Teens, if you love Liam Hemsworth, you probably have already watched the movies, but you know books are better than films. So this book series is rig...
