Early Reviews for Clockwork Princess / Cassie Answers Questions about Clockwork Princess / Wondercon / Signings



Okay, if you're like us, you're trying to avoid the internet like the plague right now, because let's face it, if someone spoils Clockwork Princess our inner Shadowhunter will be unleashed on them, and it won't be pretty.. (yes we're channeling Jace). ;) Really though, we are avoiding spoilers, which is why we created a Clockwork Princess spoiler forum *this link does NOT go to that forum, it goes to the CP2 form itself*

Cassie's featured a few snippets from a couple big media outlets who have given Clockwork Princess glowing reviews.

from EW:


Whoo! Entertainment Weekly this week has a full-page review of Clockwork Princess. I’ve excerpted a bit from the end, since the whole review belongs to EW, but I am thrilled they liked it! And while the review is spoiler-free, I hope the end paragraph gives some hope that you’ll like the ending whatever happens. :)
[The review is in the new Entertainment Weekly, the one with the gorgeous shot of the Game of Thrones characters on the front! ]

There's a lot of buzz among Shadowhunter fans right now about Cassie's upcoming signings, Wondercon, and of course why booksellers have broken the Clockwork Princess EMBARGO. Here's what she said:
questions re: clockwork princess/Wondercon/signings
“Hello Cassie, I have a question for you, I’m meeting you on March 19th, are you going to sign all the people’s books or just an amount of people? :) — booksproblemss”
I always try to sign everyone’s books at a signing. The only few times I haven’t managed it have been when the bookstore wound up closing and tossing me out. But the whole idea of a book signing is, you know, you get your books signed. :)
“I was wondering, will you and the cast be signing books, posters, etc at Wondercon? — iamclaryfray”

“hi cassie! i am completely in love with ALL of your books and i cant believe that clockwork princess is coming out in just ONE WEEK! i was just wondering if i could get books that were signed by lily collins and you… :p just wondering — areyourealornotreal”
By me, yes. By Lily, probably not — she is around for the Q and A part of the signings and some photos, but she won’t be signing book.
“hey cassie!! i am super excited for the new trailer and the poster to come out! and also CP2!! 
I am pretty sure the new poster is just for movie theaters. Usually when they start selling movie posters it is through bookstores, comic stores, Hot Topics, etc. and it’s closer to the film’s release.
“Hi Cassie! I had a slight heart attack when I heard some people already have a copy of Clockwork Princess. Is this true? If so, how? I’ve heard that there are some spoilers on Tumblr about the ending and other juicy things that happen in the book. It’s just really important to me that I don’t know the ending before I even start the book. — fallenshadowhunters”
Because embargoes are always broken. People got the last Harry Potter book early. Despite the fact that bookstores have strict instructions not to sell the book, there are always employees who forget/don’t care etc. The fault is not with the people who bought the book, keep that in mind. And, if you really don’t want to be spoiled:
1) Avoid the tags
2) Use Savior or something else like it to blacklist topics like Clockwork Princess and Will Herondale
3) Consider staying off tumblr entirely.
And when you do get the book, don’t read the family tree first. You’ll be sorry if you do!
It would be nice if you could trust other people to protect you from spoilers but you CAN’T. You have to protect yourself.
