Untitled (Keeper of the Lost Cities, #10) (2024)

if i read 10 books and sokeefe is not endgame i will be rioting in the streets

I CANT WAITTTTTTT LETS GOOOOO SOKEEFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

This better be the final one for real this time🤨

Foster-Keefe endgame ❤️‍🔥 If you disagree we can't get along ☺️

Anyhow this book had better be called Moonlark and I feel like the cover's either just going to have Sophie on it, or the entire friend group. I'd prefer the second one because poor lil Dex deserved to be on another cover 🥲

Sophie and Hope are going to kick everyone's butts in the epic battle at the end, it's not up for discussion, thank you.

I'll be impatiently waiting until next year 😔 Well at least it better be next year and not another two year wait....

~edit~ 03/01/23

guess who just found out it'll be another two year wait.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I'm in shock. I am happy for her, that's great for her and I wish her the best.

BUT SERIOUSLY

US FANS ARE DESPERATE

D E S P E R A T E

*cries*

https://www.instagram.com/p/CpQRHTmJ3c2/ her post about it is here 😔

if you feel my pain feel free to rant in the comments 👇🏼 I need my peoples

remember when this was supposed to be a trilogy ahaha

Alrighty, so in case you haven't heard, here's the tea:

Shannon Messenger just announced she is pregnant with baby #2. Don't get me wrong, that's AWESOME news. But she also announced that because she is having another baby, Untitled will not be released until 2024.

Do you guys realize what this means???

IT MEANS A WHOLE EXTRA YEAR UNTIL WE GET MORE LONG AWAITED SOKEEFE ACTION!!!!! UNTIL WE GET MORE ANSWERS!!!! UNTIL WE FIND OUT FOR SURE WHO SOHPIE'S DANG FATHER IS!!!!! UNTIL WE FINALLY SEE FITZ GETTING WHAT HE DESERVES!!!! WE WILL NOT SURVIVE. I REPEAT: WE WILL NOT SURVIVE!!!!

Thoughts, anyone?

I have made a grave mistake. I had planned to start this series after the last book was released. But you see how that went. I binged books 1-9 (including 8.5) in a month. And now I have to waaaaaiiiittttt. 😥

the waiting game has started… also $20 this one is getting called elysian

edit (nov 2023) - since we're getting close to the new year, i would just like to reiterate my bet! i also can't wait to see the cover. no clue who will be on it at this point... but i'm getting the feeling it might be another keefe cover.

Y'all SoKeefe had best be official by the end of this or I'll be VERY upset and if Keefe and Sophie don't have a happy ending then Shannon is paying for my therapy just saying
ALSO
Fitz had best start minding his own business or I'ma punch him in the face 😊

I mean....Good for Shannon and I'm happy for her about having another kid and all but seriously how are we gonna survive?

But...I am....sooo....yeah 😭😭😭😭😭

30.03.2023

Just finished Stellarlune, I honestly have no idea how this is going to end?

We're all rooting for Team Foster-Keefe!

---------
So this is now a 10 book series?! I thought the next book was the finalé but I guess not…

If it doesn’t end with Sophie and Keefe together I’m going to riot!! (Also it’s about time we kill Fitz) I’m only in to the books to see Sophie and Keefe together, and to see who her dad is. Soooo lets all hope she end the series right. And hope that there is no book eleven, I love the series but if it goes on the long it will be horrible

I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I. NEED. MORE. FOSTER-KEEFE. IT'S BAD HOW OBSESSED I AM WITH THIS SERIES!!!

and so the wait begins (while i slowly lose my mind AGAIN I DO THIS EVERY YEAR AND HOW DOES IT NOT GET EASIER??)

welp Shannon’s pregnant again and we have to wait until 2024 for this 🫢 still, I’m happy for her!!! No more imaginary grandchildren (iykyk) 🤍🤍🤍

Edit: 11/29/2022

Me thinking about KotLC: SOKEEFE FOREVER!!!!!!

March 1
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOT AGAIN
Apparently, for those of you that do not obsessively check Shannon Messenger's Instagram looking for book updates, she is having another kid and the book is postponed until 2024.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I CANNOT LIVE THROUGH THIS
AT THIS RATE I LITERALLY WILL DIE BEFORE THE KEEPER SERIES IS FINISHED
I WILL NOT SURVIVE THIS WAIT

WWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYY
NOT ANOTHER TWO YEAR WAIT

Happy late valentine's day, I'm writing a Team Foster-Keefe marriage story and i will post link once it's done! I hoped to have it for Valentine's Day but no such luck 😔
February 11
I
WANT
A
COVERRRRRRRRRRRRRR
also i expect Sophie and Keefe to be on that cover, because there is no way this is the last book. But... if it is the last one we need to have EVERYONE on the cover, maybe also some bodyguards.
OH WAIT!
WE NEED TO GIVE DEX ANOTHER COVER!
I have changed my mind, this cover needs to have the Dexinator on it.

IT'S A NEW MONTH AND I AM INTO KEEPER MEMES

HURRY HURRY HURRY!!!!!!
January 2
HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS
This better be it
The year that this FINALLY COMES OUT
Sorry if i sound weird saying FINALLY
we've only been waiting not even 2 months...
BUT THAT CLIFFHANGER WAS BRUTAL.
I know we all know this, but I needed to say it!
So here's how I cope with cliffhangers: reread the Whole. Entire. Series. And for this, it's a pretty long series (<3) so I've got a lot of books and a lot of time! I just started Keeper #1 and now that I HAVE Stellarlune, I can ACTUALLY reread chapter 42 until book 10 comes out.
Tho I kinda have the GOOD part memorized (wink wink you know which part I'm talking about).
When I read that though, I just read from when Keefe is BACK IN THE LOST CITIES HOORAY to AFTER THE COGNATE INQUISITION BOO and I only read that far because I can see how stupid Fitz acts and then I can laugh at him and know that Sophie already got the So. Much. Better. that she deserved and Fitz is just left SOBBING IN THE DUST MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
December 31
I GOT STELLARLUNE FOR CHRISTMAS
MY LIFE IS FULFILLED
I CAN DIE IN PEACE
YAAAAAAAAY
December 23
wow.
just wow.
I just found someone on Goodreads who ships Fitzphie thinking that Sophie and Fitz are both jerks and Sophie doesn't deserve Keefe.
First things first on that, lets just clarify this. I'm shocked, but I don't hate this person or judge them (though I do wonder WHY). Also they haven't read Stellarlune. I wonder if they did they would ship Team Foster-Keefe since that's when it HAPPENS!!!
Merry Christmas everyone (or Hanukkah or whatever, no judgement)
The only thing on my wish list: Nightfall, Flashback, Legacy, Unlocked, Stellarlune
BTW: If I could only pick 1? Stellarlune, no contest.
Take away one? FLASHBACK
December 16
Wow it's actually here!!
STUFF THAT'S GOTTA HAPPEN:
Who is Sophies dad (I know Keefe doesn't care that she's unmatchable, but I want to know)
Who is Blur
MORE OF THAT PLEASE TEAM FOSTER-KEEFE!!! AH this may be the best thing that's happened in KotLC. Kind of odd compared to the fact that Stellarlune was the worst cliffhanger yet... only Shannon Messenger would end the best book in the series with a battle scene and NO BOOK AFTER IT YET and leave us (read: me) with a mess of conflicted feelings...
Other official ships: Biana and Tam! Um maybe Fitz and Linh- or maybe Fitz could be a councillor? Fitz and Marella? Dex and Marella? Oh forget this bit I have no idea whatsoever.
Another thing: Somehow I missed the one-month anniversary of Stellarlune! Let's amend that shall we?
I LOVE U KEEPER!!!
Everyone say it with me if you agree. Actually strike that, I don't really want Fitz shippers agreeing with me.
(Sorry, Fitzphie. But Team Foster-Keefe will always be cooler.)

Not going to lie (and I'm pretty sure everyone else is going to agree with me, hands down) but I'm not prepared for the *good and hopefully less agonizing* chaotic mess that is going to come in this book.

It's probably going to be intense and anti-climatic, and there is definitely going to be some epic battle in the end where Sophie and crew will finally kick the Neverseen's butts - and I'M HERE FOR ITTT ❤️‍🔥

SOKEEFE IS ENDGAME, BECAUSE THEY ARE SOULMATES FOR INFINITY AND BEYOND. DON'T YOU DARE SAY OTHERWISE. I am so excited to see their adorable-ness and all of the fluff we have all been less than patiently waiting for for A GAZILLION LIGHTYEARS ❤

Thanks to that horrible cliffhanger in Stellarlune *AHEM, Shannon* , I've also developed some theories, some of which I hope will not come true in the next book. Probably a central reason why I'm not ready for it.

And RO??? PLEASE COME BACK!!!! Cause I really want to see Sophie use Hope in the final battle, because that bond is going to save us all in the end 💪🏻

ALSO.

The cover?!? It better be just as stunning as Stellarlune's cover, maybe even more. And I really want to see Sophie and her entire friend group, because poor Dex needs to be on the cover after being majorly forgotten and brought back in Stellarlune AND got his page time ☺️

And the ✨TITLE ✨??? It better be the most epic, empowering, inspiring, AND intimidating title of all the other titles of the books. My bet's on Elysian, because that seems the most predictable after the end of Stellarlune. But I REALLY REALLY REALLY want it to be Moonlark or something, because we need Sophie's badass girl power in this book. And I really feel like we're going to get it in this one.

Anywayssss, I'm now going to be *not patiently waiting* for this next installment. Yippeeeeee

UPDATE 3/1/23

wow. Another two year-wait for #10 Shannon? Really? *sobs* I'm happy for your kid but WE DEPEND ON YOU BECAUSE KOTLC IS ONE OF OUR LIFELINES AND YOU MAKE US WAIT AGAIN FOR THE NEXT BOOK?

*starting to seriously ugly cry* 😭

Okay, I have a new theory about this series

Sophie's mystery father? It's the alicorn, Greyfall

Imma take a big order of this book RIGHT NOW please and thanks

March 1

NO NO NO NO NO I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING AGAIN

IM GONNA BE SO OLD BY THE TIME THIS SERIES IS OVER

I’m happy for Shannon but still

no I’m not alright. don’t talk to me for 5-7 business days

12/04/2021:

I have mixed feelings on this. On one hand, I don't think you can complete all of the missing information and plot threads in one finale but on the other, this series is getting a little too long. Just hope we get a satisfying ending.

Ok. SO. This is what we need in this book:
-more Ro
-more Keefe
-less Fitz
-who Sophie’s dad is
-more Dex
-more Biana
ALSO WHO WANTS TO BUILD A TIME MACHINE WITH ME SO WE CAN GO INTO THE FUTURE AND READ IT!?
Edit: NOVEMBER 2024 WHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Edit: 2025!? DONT GET ME WRONG-I LOVE KEEFE-BUT I CANT WAIT 2 YEARS TO SEE WHO ELYSIN ISSSSSS

Honestly you would think that 9, 500-700 paged books would be enough to finish a story but noooooo you have GOT to kill everyone with the suspense.
If Sokeefe is not official by the end of this book I will find you shannon messenger,
But Seriously.
TEAM FOSTER-KEEFE FOREVER

WHY 2024?!?!?!

....this series isn't over yet? I thought the last book was Stellarlune....

SHANNON IF YOU KILL ANYONE I WILL FIND YOU
anyways bet you anything this is called elysian or another star related to gisela omg

KEEFE KEEFE KEEFE KEEFE KEEFE KEEFE

OH MY GOSHHHH! I'M SOOO EXCITED!!

Sokeefe is now cannon!!

I heard that this MAYBE the final book of the series! Don't quote me on it. I have no idea how I feel about that. I mean, it's going to have an ending but at the same time... SHANNON NEVER END THIS SERIES!!!

Maybe like Rick Riorden, she'll write another series after like "Heroes of Olympus" and "Trials of Apollo" Both by Rick. She'll have a "AFTER keeper" books. Maybe? I'll hold on to the hope, but if this would be the end, I'll most likely survive.

I just so excited for book #10) and I know Shannon Messenger (My favorite author) will create an amazing #10) book!
