335įor all our amazing Jessa fans out there, I bring you Blackfriars Bridge! As we all know, Blackfriars Bridge is Jem’s favourite place in London, he often frequents it just to stop and enjoy the view in solitary since it’s not a popular one compared to London Bridge or Tower Bridge. I enjoy the solitude, and just the look of the river, silent under the moon”’ – Clockwork Angel, p.
But it means people rarely come here to admire the view.
‘“I know what you’re thinking,” Jem said again, just as he had outside the institute. As their search for Tessa’s brother draws them deeper into a whirlwind of secrets and adventures, it seems that the only way to save them all relies upon Tessa… Among the London Institute where Tessa took upon residing, she is gradually drawn to and torn between two best friends, Will Herondale and Jem Carstairs. Here she encounters a dark supernatural world and a race of beings known as Shadowhunters, half-angel and half-humans sworn to protect the mundane world from demons and other evil existence. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the story, the books follow 16-year-old Tessa Gray who travels to London in the year 1878 in search of her missing brother. With that being said, if you, like me, have read Cassandra Clare’s The Infernal Devices series and fallen head over heels in love with it (undoubtedly crying during every reread), these are the top five places that you need to visit to once again relive the thrilling adventures of Will, Jem, and Tessa.
Reading books can certain transport your mind to a whole new world, but what if you have the opportunity to get to see the places they’re actually based on in real life? Imagine walking on the cobblestone pavement where your favourite characters have walked, investigating their favourite shops and stores, sneaking through secret passageways leading to secret chambers, or simply visiting the place where your favourite character was born. Augustine once said, ‘The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page’.
