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)

Chain of Gold Book Review ( Spoiler Alert!!)

  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 Herondale

 10. The Hate U Give, Angie Thomas T his book got me rendered speechless after reading it. This book deal with the main character Starr who lives in a poor neighborhood but goes to a vibrant school. Her life becomes chaotic when one night, her childhood best friend is shot by a police officer. As with most of the great books these days, this book is converted into a movie. 9. Fangirl, Rainbow Rowell This novel depicts the coming of age and how Cath deals with her social anxiety. What mainly attracted me to this book was the title because can it be more relatable?? Reading the summary behind invited me even more. This book revolves around Cath, a fangirl who finds solace in writing fanfictions. If you haven't read this book yet, I definitely recommend this because it deals with family to first love. 8. Paper Towns, John Green This John Green book deals with two friends Quentin and Margo, who were childhood friends and neighbors. They eventually grew apart until one day, Margo ends u
