Whether this was a right or wrong approach, Maia wasn't going to wait around for the Shadowhunters to finally realize all the terrible things that Heidi was doing. Heidi's overconfidence played a big part in her death because she assumed since Maia was alone that she would be easy to take out. But she underestimated Maia and see how that turned out for her.

Most Memorable Scene: Maia Roberts vs Heidi McKenzie (Shadowhunters)
It's been a while since I've watched Shadowhunters but I remember this fight between werewolf Maia Roberts and vampire Heidi McKenzie in the episode To the Night Children (season 3 episode 15). During the third season, Heidi was a non-stop terror. From holding vampire Simon Lewis' human family hostage to trick him into feeding/killing them to murdering people to manipulating other vampires into killing werewolves (Maia's pack) and so much more. She somehow convinced the Shadowhunters that she was innocent in the werewolves attack and turned in other vampires for the crime. However, Maia was there during the attack and knew Heidi was responsible, so she took matters in her own hands and sought revenge.

Shadowhunters' Maia Roberts: Werewolf, Alpha and Restaurateur
One of the things I loved about the Shadowhunters series finale, is Maia Roberts opening her own restaurant called Taki's Diner. She is going to be extremely busy because not only is she the Alpha werewolf but now she's going to run her own business. The new restaurant is going to be where the Jade Wolf Chinese Restaurant (and former werewolf headquarters) used to be. Renovation had already begun with the walls being panted and I'm sure at some point Maia will change the furniture and a few architectural details to make the place look and feel new.
I like that Taki's Diner (which she named after her childhood pet) is going to be a special place that Downworlders (werewolves, warlocks, vampires, Seelies, etc.) as well as Shadowhunters could go to enjoy a good meal or drink.
You can tell that Maia is so excited about starting her business and I thought it was nice that she even honored Clary Fairchild (who was no longer a Shadowhunter and had no memory of being one) by naming a burrata salad after her. I'm sure the menu would be filled with so many different and imaginative meals for the Downworlders, she's even going to offer various specialty blood for the vampires.
From the minute Maia appeared on screen in the second season, she instantly became one of my favorite characters. She's a headstrong werewolf with a strong and sarcastic personality who took charge of her life and never let any obstacle derail her. She's very inspiring and it's no wonder she ended up becoming her pack's Alpha and starting her own business.

Maia Roberts and Jace Herondale: A Potential Romance Wasted
There are some characters who have instant chemistry such as with the Shadowhunters TV series characters Jace Herondale (Dominic Sherwood), a Shadowhunter and Maia Roberts (Alisha Wainwright), a werewolf. Since this show is loosely based on The Mortal Instruments books by Cassandra Clare, it really would have been interesting if the writers had explored a relationship between Jace and Maia after they hooked up in the episode "Those of Demon Blood" (season 2 episode 13). Instead it was a one time hook up that felt like a total waste since nothing more happened between them especially since these two have such amazing chemistry. Although, they clashed a lot in the beginning, their strong, flirty and sarcastic personalities really work well together.

I'm still really surprised that Shadowhunters was cancelled but a lot of fans (myself included) have been trying to see if we can save the show. Fortunately, there is still the remainder of the 3rd season episodes that still need to air and not to mention the series will end with a 2-hour finale.
So if we are unable to save the show we at least have that.

Shadowhunters Trailer for S2 E16: "Day of Atonement"
Last week's episode was very emotional with Magnus talking about his past while Sebastian's story continues to be a very interesting yet twisted ordeal. I really want to see what's he is up to in tonight's episode.
It looks like Maia is going to be helping Simon deal with some family drama, I really like their friendship. I'm a little disappointed that Maia and Jace so far have been nothing more than a hook up. It looks like the show is slowly working it's way back to Clary and Jace, I'm not a fan of these two being together because they have no chemistry. But as book fans keep tell me, they are together in the books. However, just because they are together in the books doesn't mean they have to be on the show especially if they have no chemistry. Well, that's a discussion for another day, can't wait to watch this episode.

TV Round Up: Shadowhunters S2 Ep 13: Those of Demon Blood
I was so right, last night's Shadowhunters episode "Those of Demon Blood" was awesome. Shadowhunters were being killed and it looks like the Downworlders were to blame. The Clave was issuing out commands and you know nothing good would come from that. And not to mention Jace was now Head of the New York Institute.
To think his grandmother Inquisitor Imogen Herondale really thought he was suited for the job. She must have had her nepotism blinders on to make that terrible decision. I can't believe Simon and Maia were locked up in the Institute, Simon for not leaving the premises and Maia for being accused of murdering a Shadowhunter. I kept wondering why Jace didn't stand up to his grandmother? Yes, I know he just found out that he's a Herondale but he can't roll over and let his grandmother take over his life.

Shadowhunters Trailer and Two Sneak Peeks for S2 Ep13: "Those of Demon Blood"
I know I said this last week but this episode looks really good. From the sneak peek it looks like Jace is now in charge of the New York Institute instead of Alec. That sucks because Jace is far too unqualified and reckless for the job and I bet he goes on a power trip too.
I can't wait to see the fight scene between Maia and Jace because how can he expect the werewolves to accept getting tracking chips implanted in them. And I'm sure there is no way Magnus is going to hand over one lock of hair to the Shadowhunters, who knows what they would do with it. I can't believe Jace would lock up Simon what could that nerd have possibly done to warrant that. I wonder if jealousy is clouding Jace's judgment towards Simon for dating Clary.
Shadowhunters are not better than the Downworlders just because they have angel blood. And it seems to be that Shadowhunters are the ones who cause a lot of the problems with their arrogance, prejudices, etc. which is unfortunately aimed at the Downworlders. I have to see how this episode will end, hopefully with Jace being fired with Alec getting the job. But we'll see.

Fashion Meets Comics: Maia Roberts (Shadowhunters)
I love Maia Roberts' outfit from the Shadowhunters episode "Parabatai Lost" (s2 ep3), she wore a bomber jacket, a sleeveless crop top and jean. It's casual and easy to pull together.
I was inspired by her outfit to sort of recreate it, although her jacket and top had a design or print on them, I kept it simple. Because I know it would look great with whatever accessories were paired with it. To add a bit of versatility to this look I also included a pair of shorts to make it summer ready.

Characters Reading: Maia Roberts (Shadowhunters)
It should come to no surprise to anyone that I love to read, hey I have a book blog. I absolutely enjoy reading, reviewing and promoting books. There are so many interesting stories out in the world that I want to read as many of them as I can.
I also love when characters in TV shows and Movies are shown reading even if it's only a small scene. That bookish quality is something that really adds something to the character. So, my first Characters Reading post will go to Shadowhunters Maia Roberts. She was shown in a couple episodes which includes How Are Thou Fallen reading Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.
I read this book several years ago and it's a very good read. I absolutely loved it.

What I hope will happen on Shadowhunters 2B?
I'm sure as fans, we are going to be in for a quite a few surprises for the second half of Shadowhunters season two. And from doing a quick search, I see that fans have been guessing as to what will happen on the show and with the characters. And that got me thinking about what I would like to see happen.
For the show, I hope that at some point Idris will be shown. The Shadowhunters' home world has been mention quite a few times on the show and I would love to see it. I wish the werewolves and vampires were more ferocious to give the Shadowhunters more of a fight and I want to see more demons. Now as for some of the characters here's what I hope to see for them:
Clary Fray (Katherine McNamara)
I hope Clary will be less annoying and less idiotic for the rest of the season. She has the potential to be a great character but the way she's been shown for season 1 and the first half of season 2 is really off putting. She has a tendency to be selfish, extremely naïve but at the same time try to take control of situations she is clearly not ready for. I want Clary to continue with her art because her interest in that should not be sidelined now that she's a Shadowhunter.
