‼️SPOILERS FOR PAST BOOKS‼️
On January 26, Shannon announced the title of book nine: Stellarlune
And I hated it
Why? Because it alludes to there being more Keefe, when in fact it will probably be Sophie, ruining her life one arson at a time
And Keefe nowhere to be found
Then, on February 15th(ish) we got a cover
AND I LOVED IT!

JHGNLGESDGNL LOOK AT IT
But anyway, onto other stuff

Something I’d absolutely love would be for the entire book to be Keefe’s perspective because goddamn, I need that after waiting an entire extra year for this freaking book
I’m going to sue if he doesn’t show up at all. Or storm Shannon’s house—
It would be enough to forgive Shannon for the absolute chaotic mess that was Unlocked. Like, I’m still in denial that Keefe ran away.
Still
Also, for Sophie to finally grow up cause man, she is so annoying
She sets something important on fire, leaves a moonlark drawing that shows that she set the fire, then wonders why she’s in trouble for setting the fire?
Like dude. Please consider the consequences. My god—
And if Marella were to show up more I definitely wouldn’t complain—
Hopefully that’s her on the cover
Also! If Shannon were to stop hating on Stina so much!
Like, she’s a queen. Honestly though. I love their interactions!
And I would like some sort of redemption arc for Fitz and Glimmer
Now, I know that neither of them are really evil… but, I mean, c’mon
And it would, like, make the characters less hate-able
And I dunno, it would be nice to see Shannon acknowledging the general dislike of those characters.
But I digress

Ehh.
There has to be a wrap up to some of the many plot threads that Shannon’s slowly been sewing into the main story
And obviously, there’s going to be a face-off with the Neverseen, probably in the Lodestar mirror hideout, with Sophie, Marella, and Maruca.
Well, it could be anywhere, but it looks most like the Lodestar mirror hideaway thing
Or is it like a battle in a human city? Maybe they were looking for Keefe and then the Neverseen show up like “lol hi”
And maybe an introduction to Dendrokinesis? Cause of the little vine thing? That would be cool
It’d also be cool if Amy were to show up if they look for Keefe. Because, Amy’s awesome

This was mostly inspired by a discussion with friends.
The scariest include: it was all a dream/coma, Mr. Forkle is evil, Amy is evil, everyone is Keefe (don’t ask), and Glimmer is Amy
The dream/coma one requires an explanation: remember when Sophie when almost hit by that car? Well, what if she was actually hit, then all her misadventures were ~all a dream~
That would be absolutely fury-inducing. (I said, and I quote, “I will force Shannon to eat her own knees if she pulls that.”)
Uh, that’s all the thoughts I have. Mostly, I’m just deciding if I should even read the damn book because I kinda don’t wanna know what happens
Well. G’bye
Man, that letter in Unlocked made me break down. Shannon Messenger tortures her readers with those cliffhangers…

my sister saw me ripping my Keefe drawings to shreds after, (whispers) the letter… (takes a break to go shred some more dreams…)

You have me at “Sophie is annoying”. And that Stina is a queen. Because she IS. Why is the series so stretched out though 😦
