Still pretty dang awesome, but not as much so as Neverseen. Neverseen is still my favorite. WOOT WOOT KEEPER OF THE LOST CITIES! WOOT WOOT SHANNON MESSENGER!!!
But now I have to wait about 7 months for book 6...*screams in agony*
...and I have to wait about the same time for Stranger Things season 2...*louder agonized screams*
THE AGONY!!!!!!! *LOUD SCREECHING*
I’m so melodramatic

"A school isn’t a school until Sophie tries to destroy it."


How does Shannon Mesenger manage to write her books in such a way that her sequels get even better than her previous books? Like how?! Neverseen was perfection and somehow this managed to be just as good!


The plot was impeccable, although I wish Keefe was more present in this book. There's a huge reason for his absence, but still I love him and he makes all scenes better with his teasing. Wow, I'm already talking about Keefe. How long did it take me? Two sentences? Well, I love him and there's nothing I can do about it. Why does he have to be fictional? I'm serious. Why couldn't he be real?


The humor as always as magnificent. All the Keeper of the Lost Cities books so far have been full of humor and this book was no exception. I was laughing so hard, especially when Grady had the talk about boys with Sophie.


I will forever be Team Foster-Keefe. I will forever ship them together. I like Fitz, but seriously, he is not right for Sophie. I like Sophie and Fitz as friends, but I am against anything more. Team Foster-Keefe is superior!


My heart was again breaking for Keefe in this book. Why does he have to deal with so much crap? He is so precious, he doesn't desearve this. He deserves to be happy! Everytime he says he is not worth it, I wanna slap him back to his sense so he could maybe realise he is worth it! Ok, I should seriously stop talking about Keefe. More than half of this review is about Keefe. But, well, he is worth talking about.


I wanna have a best friend like Dex. He is such a cinnamon roll and he cares so much about his friends and family! And, by the way, I would love to have an ability like his. Being a Technopath sounds so cool. Although if I were to choose between all the abilities that we know so far I would probably wanna be a Vanisher. Invisibility is the power I wanted to have since I was a kid and I always felt it was an underrated power.


God, how did I forget about that ending?! My heart broke. In pieces. Why? Why make me suffer? Why make Sophie suffer? Hasn't she been through enough?! And how can you leave the book with that ending. I'm not sure which had a more heartbreaking ending. Which book left me with more questions. Neverseen or this book.


This series has, so quickly, become one of my favourite series of all time. It is literally at the same level with The Dark Artifices and The Illuminae Files which are my all time favourite series. I cannot chose a favourite series between three series, I love them equally. And I know I say this in every review that I have for the books in this series, but please read this series if you have not yet. Trust me, it's worth it.

Ugh i can never figure out the plot with these books

I love this series!!! This book was just as good as the one before it.
