STAND OUT MOMENTS:

Will’s confession to Magnus about his "curse" – i never knew TRUE HEARTBREAK until now
Will and Tessa reading together and geeking out about books - those two nerds OWN ME💘
Jem playing the violin, especially when it’s for Will or Tessa - my precious angel🥹
Jem and Tessa’s relationship blossoming – the way he shows Tessa that she’s worthy of love? my heart couldn’t take it!
Will and Tessa’s rooftop scene – THAT KISS. OMG STOP THE WORLD!
Jessamine’s betrayal – i knew something was up with her, but still—WHAAT
Will and his family reunion - aww
Jem’s proposal – AHH Jem, stop being perfect! I'd say YES too, but at the same time, it’s such a bittersweet moment because Will loves her too, SO i don't know what to with my feelings😭
Will finding out about Jem and Tessa – I'M STILL ON THE FLOOR, BLEEDING OUT FROM THAT, WILL NEVER RECOVER💔

ALSO, shout-out to the other characters:

Charlotte and Henry! what gets me the most is how much he adores Charlotte. he’s endlessly supportive and proud of her, and it’s just the most heartwarming thing ever.
Sophie and Gideon has the cutest slow-burn romance. he’s such a simp around Sophie, and it’s so endearing. i mean, he learns how to cook because he knows she likes it, and then brings her scones?!<3
Magnus is the star of every scene he’s in. he brings life to the story with his wit, sass, and subtle wisdom. the way he cares about people even when he acts like he doesn't, especially with Will🥹

GOD, i love this characters SO MUCH! they’re my emotional support for life, and i will never stop talking about them.
