If you think I only read Shadowhunters alongside some other books from YA genre, I am proving you wrong. I read science books too!!  Well, here are my top 5 science book that I read and totally loved! 1. The Theory of Everything - Stephen Hawkins     Based on a series of lectures given at Cambridge University, Professor Hawking's work introduced "the history of ideas about the universe" as well as today's most important scientific theories about time, space, and the cosmos in a clear, easy-to-understand way. "The Theory of Everything" presents the most complex theories, both past and present, of physics; yet it remains clear and accessible. It will enlighten readers and expose them to the rich history of scientific thought and the complexities of the universe in which we live. 2. The Time Machine - HG Wells        So begins the Time Traveller’s astonishing firsthand account of his journey 800,000 years beyond his own era—and the story that launched H.G. Well

Hey! Hope you are all doing well. Here is a book character questionnaire. If you don't know what that is, it's where I answer questions about characters I would choose in specific scenarios. So here we go :) Q1 If you can travel the world with one character who would it be and why? If I can travel the world with one character that will probably be Magnus from Shadowhunter. Like, have you seen that guy? Plus the travel costs will probably be free. Magnus is one of those characters who are carefree, doesn't worry much and just let it go, you know in general fun. So it would be great to take on the world with him. Q2 Which character would you wanna go on a long road trip? If I had planned a long road trip, I would probably want to go with Leo Valdez from the Heroes of Olympus. I mean Leo is fun and sassy and one of my favourite characters from the Percy Jackson Universe. He has a crazy Sense of humour, which I mean, who doesn't want in a road trip companion.  Q3 Which char

I am writing this just after finishing the book, so if I seem a little out of it them I'm still somewhere in Diyu (well Shanghai is better than Diyu so maybe Shanghai). Excellent is all I can say about this book. The whole group- Jace, Clary, Isabella, Simon, Alec and Magnus reunited made this book hell lot of more fun (pun intended). And I was so not ready for the bonus scene about Jem and Tessa at the end. Okay so let's just get where I tell you what happened and what I liked about it because I think I'm kind of fangirling.  So, first of all, isn't Max a cutie. It was fun watching how Maryse and Kadir were trying so hard to handle that baby. So back to the real story, no more fangirling, we get to know that Ragnor Fell was never actually dead and he faked his death to get away from Samael, Father of Demons Devourer of Realms and many more titles I'm in no mood to type. So he came back because of Lilith's agony and apparently wanted to unleash hell on Earth lik

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 th

  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
