「美佳」liesolitte Heya! My name is Edén, and yeah it's kinda my first time reading Shadowhunters books, because I've only read the first one and then dropped them in the kindle haha. But I was planning to read them soon so this challenge is perfect for me! I don't have any favorites yet, and I prefer the show waaaaay over the film which was a free-spoiler to everyone who hasn't finished the series :p

Nice to meet you all!

I have mixed feelings on show malec. I like to keep the show separate from the books. While show Malec is cute, it is nothing like the book Malec.


message 15: by Shruti (new)

Shruti | 1 comments Hello

I am Shruti and this is my first time reading the shadowhunter books. So excited to finally read these famed books!!


message 16: by Tisha (new)

Tisha (theyaqueen) | 22 comments Hey, I'm Tisha! I've read most Shadowhunter books thrice, except for Chain of Gold and The Eldest Curses :(
I hope to read them soon. I think I love TID the most, though TMI and TDA aren't far behind.
The movie SUCKS, and the show...is different. I mean, they changed the storyline, so you can't really compare it with the books. Which are always better, in my opinion :D


message 17: by Núria (new)

Núria (nuria_ortiz03) Hello, my name is Núria! I just started reading the tsc in July so I’ve only read them once. My favourite series is probably TID for the characters and TDA for the story. I prefer the show because of Malec🙃


message 18: by Devanshi (new)

Devanshi Hello from India! I am Devanshi.
I haven't read any of the Shadowhunter books but was just planning to read them next year and I find this the best opportunity (≡^∇^≡). And I haven't watched the show or movie. So excited for this!!


Fini (Hozier’s Version) | 4 comments Hello, my name is Fini.
I've already read and re-read the majority of the TSC, the next one I should read is the dark artifices series, but I'm emotionally not stable enough for that XD (I've already started but put it on hold for now) I'm glad to join this readathon and re-read my fav's before going into the TDA series.

Also, I love the TV Show <3

welcome everyone !

a personal suggestion from me is to watch the movie before reading City of bones. i know i know you will say that you will be spoiled and all that but trust me, you won't. i don't know how to explain this, the movie and the book is veryyyy different and even the ones who have read the book won't understand what the movie is trying to say. but its so much easier to imagine every thing with the movie. the silent city, the silent brothers, magnus bane! hodge, clary's apartment etc.. have been done so well.
(just a lil suggestion from my side :) i think you can find the full movie on YouTube)


message 22: by Beenish (new)

Beenish (beenishamir) hey, I'm Bee. I actually read tmi and tda only but I read all books just this year. and now I'm re-reading tmi lol just because it's been long since I last read it and had to remember a few things. it's not the best but it's just the series that introduced me to this world so I like it. I love TID and TDA the most!! And short stories are all really good!!

and the show can't be compared to the books because they changed everything. from storyline to the characters age and personality.

welcome :)


message 24: by María (new)

María | 1 comments Hello! My name is Maria. Its not the first time I read Shadowhunters, but I have to finish reading QOAAD and GOTSM. I cant choose my favourite serie because I love them all. I prefer the show even though they changed lots of things.


message 25: by Samiiiiii☽ (new)

Samiiiiii☽ | 1 comments Hi. My name is Samira but you can call me Samy if you want.

It would be my first time re-reading all the series, and the 4th time re-reading The Infernal Devices (i just really love that trilogy). Although I think i came too late for that :")

My favorite series is The Infernal Devices (hehehe you were not expecting that), and my favorite book is Clockwork Prince.... (Although Chain of Gold STOLE MY ENTIRE HEART)

I prefer the movie, I'm sorry but the show sucks. I really wanted to like it but...

Anyways, I hope to have a great time reading with y'all! :)


message 26: by Alyson (new)

Alyson Hello my name is Alyson or Ally and I have read all the shadowhunters books before and am exited to re-read the books!!

My favourite series is the Infernal Devices and book would be Lord of Shadows(but I have a feeling that it will change as soon as the wicked powers comes about because my 3 of my favs are in it (Kit, Ty and Dru) but chain of gold also stole my heart but we will see)

I don't really like the movie or the tv show but I thought Lily did a good job of clary and the tv alec stole my heart.


message 27: by Sofía (new)

Sofía | 1 comments 1 My name’s Sofía
2 Thus is not my first time reading these books, I’m currently reading the dark artifices and I’ve already read TID and TMI.
3 My favorite again is TID, I honestly had really low expectations on it because I don’t usually like sagas that are not the principal but since everyone was reading it I decided to. And after reading it I realized how wrong I was, IT WAS BEAUTIFUL, the characters, the plot, everything. I think what I liked the most is that the love triangle didn’t involve any hate at all.
4 Being honest, I got introduced to this world because I watched the series on Netflix. But after reading the books I must admit that the movie was pretty similar to the book compared to the series, but still I liked both.
