#expand tags to read more lmao#the mortal instruments#anti cassandra clare#my take with any body of work tbh#alec is my favourite but also very much gives Tortured Gay Written By Straight#clary should've ended up with simon (à la peeta mellark effect)#i love jace but he loses all personality as the love interest#also i will live breathe and die on the jalec hill they should've got the storyline that emma and julian did#the fact that the forbidden parabatai love story was given to a STRAIGHT couple is absolutely ridiculous#also i fucking hate malec it seemed so romantic when i was like 15 but now i cannot read it without thinking of my first relationship#ie. young and inexperienced me VS. what may not legally be grooming but technically is#à la rhys and feyre i HATE this immortal falling in love with a teenage mortal bs#red flag#magnus is also a gay character written for straight people#like he's fine but he's not giving yknow#i just relate a lot to alec and hate how him and magnus are so romanticised#IT SHOULD'VE BEEN JACE#imagine how good a jace and alec slowburn would've been in the last three books#talking of gay shit get izzy a girlfriend (and have it be me)#i jest but not - all of the lightwood siblings are gay wbk#clary is their token straight#all this to say give this idea to ME not to the ex ron x ginny author#anyway rant over#some teenage books live up to the hype (hunger games) and some don't (these)
