OMG. I can't even-my love for this series can't be explained in words I AIN'T EVEN JOKING. i'm genuinely so happy I found this series. and like the fact I found it in my teachers classroom? the fandom is just so funnnn I cant-UGHH characters (my thoughts??): okay, we can't lie, Keefe and dex are on TOP. I NEED TO GET SOME QUOTES FROM THE SOPHIE AND KEEFE KISS HOLD UP- "Mostly because I missed the chance to be with this really incredible guy who makes me laugh and always finds a way to be there when I need him." -sophie foster (aka the moonlark) NOT ALL GUYS HOLD ONN.."He twined their fingers together and shook his head. 'Trust me-this is what I've wanted from the moment I saw you, wandering through the halls in the middle of session covered in alchemy goo. I knew right away that i'd met someone incredibly special-and every minute i've spent with you has proven how true that is. but is this really what you want?'" -keefe scencen..MORE GUYS.."So she tilted up on her toes and leaned forward, meeting his eyes as she lined her lips up with his-careful to leave a tiny wisp of space. a chance for him to change his mind. Keefe closed the distance between them. and then-everything was new. the soft press of his lips against hers. the way their breath seemed to fall perfectly into sync while her heart screamed FINALLY!!! some tiny part of her wondered if kissing could really be as great as everyone claimed. But kissing Keefe was so. Much. Better. he was the one to finally pull away, leaning back to study her in the shimmering light. 'You're okay, right? No regrets?' She grinned. 'Absolutely none.'" LIKE EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T READ KOTLC THAT IS STILL SO FREAKIN CUTE!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! like no Sophie be pulling all the guys..Keefe, dex, fitz...but dex is her cousin guys! and dex..kissed her. yeah, i'll have to admit I didn't enjoy that one TT. but I don't ship sophitz because they're toxic asf..and Fitz is not going to be with her because they are unmatchable. so yeah on to ranting about how everyone hates sophie..(some people ig? not everybody hates her): some of y'all need to remember that all she has gone through is so, so much harder than anything you have ever experienced. and remember, she is still a minor btw. like, she had to leave her parents by drugging them, and letting the washers wipe their mind, and relocate them to forget about her. no, she is NOT a pick me. no, she is NOT dramatic. just stop already. if I were her, my mind would've already shattered a long time ago. anyway, I love how Shannon makes her fans care so much about her characters! like, when Kendric died, I was not okay for a while. and when Calla died, OH NO. I WAS LIKE DEAD. genuinely the books are soo fun and like..AHHH IM GOING TO EXPLODEE!! also, let's talk about ships! on my top list, we have..dexiana (dex+biana), sokeefe (sophie+keefe), marelinh (marella+linh), and there's more but I CAN'T REMEMBER! oh, maybe FINTAN+BRONTEE, but I don't have a ship name for them yet...and for friendships, SODEX ALL THE WAY (sophie+dex). oh yeah I remember when Jensi liked Biana, so maybe them as a ship?? idk, nobody seems to remember them. yo, I remember when I shipped sophie and dex on the first book TT. DON'T ATTACK ME I SERIOUSLY DIDN'T KNOW. yesss I love the relationship between Keefe and silveny! like the way whenever sophie transmits to silveny she just keeps screaming KEEFE! KEEFE! KEFFE! and the way keefe calls her glitterbut like YESS KEEFE!! if you have reached the end, comment KOTLC!! since you have reached the end, READ KOTLC! IM TELLING YOU! it's long, but worth the journey! -ria/tori ♡
