Yes!! Proof of that is all over this book! He is finally realizing that!! FINALLY!

[*Ramya*]

Hopefully Sophie will get her packet by the seventh book--or maybe the elves will stop the matchmaking process. Who knows?

[*Ramya*]

Also, do you remember when Biana says that Fitz's answers (for the matchmaking packet) were ADORABLE? Can't wait to find out what they were- IF we ever do get to know.

I wonder if Fitz will have to share his answers to Sophie as Cognates!

I'm sure his answers will be shared as one of their trust exercises! Hopefully by book 6 but ill wait for book 7. Her books are long so a lot can still happen!!! that would be awesome I would really like to know his answers though and yeah Sophie does want the matchmaking process to stop so maybe... I'm just waiting for book 6 to be released already!!! Cliffhangers are always getting me!

I have I sokeefe neighbor and she said that she thought after reading lodestar that SOPHITZ had gone down, AND THAT IT WASNT A POSSIBILITY!!!! I stood there in utter disbelief then read aloud to her the last 10 pages, and it turns out that she had skipped those and that made her think that SOPHITZ had a extreme advantage... (#lovecrushingthedreamsofsokeefeshippers) she then read the whole series again and became a SOPHITZ fan!!!!! Sorry, have to go... Have an audition!!! Wish me luck!!! :)

[*Ramya*]

Best of luck, Joel!

In fact, I am going to sing in a concert at about 6, so I get how you feel.

I love that your neighbor switched sides!!!!!!!

HA!!

I like how you said, "I stood there in utter disbelief!"

Good Luck! And time for a confession... you ready?!?... I was once on team Keefe and Sophie!! But after this book my mind was transformed! I love Fitz and Sophie together SO MUCH BETTER... end of story lol

[malayna]

YES!!!!

I wonder who else will be on her list...

Also, do any of you ship Linh and Wylie or do you think that they have an age difference prevention?

Also, I kind of ship Biana and Tam now. What would that be? Bam? Tiana?

I am about 50 pages away from finishing the book, and I am so excited.

I don't like that fact that she is an Enhancer now though...it just doesn't feel right anymore to me for some reason...

I CAN'T WAIT TO FINISH

[*Ramya*]

Why does everyone keep saying that they don't like Sophie's new ability of enhancing?

I, for one, LOVE Sophie's new ability of Enhancing.


To be honest, I wasn't really sure if Sophie would get a new ability, and I just think Enhancing is really cool--

anyone else remember that Enhancing is Sophie's one NATURAL ability--

this is a clue to who Sophie's parents are!!!!!!!

(Though we don't know any Enhancers yet)

[Joana]

True! I like her new ability, it has already come in handy many times! And I CAN'T WAIT until we find out WHO her parents are!!!!!

[*Ramya*]

I KNOW!!!!!

How do you think Amy (Sophie's little sister) will react to Sophie's new family/friends.

Do you think Amy will like one of the boys?

Just asking because the thought has crossed my mind several times-even though it would be BAD if a human and elf fell in love with each other

[Joana]

I feel like that will be a STEP towards getting rid of the matchmaking process!!! Like maybe humans can live WITH them!!! Like maybe.... who do you think all the characters will end up with? Tam and Biana? Sophie and Fitz?

[*Ramya*]

I truly have no idea.

I don't ship anyone except Sophie and Fitz.

Another problem with a human and an elf falling in love is that humans age, and elves stop aging when they become adults.

Maybe they find out a way to make Amy immortal!!!!!!!

[Joana]

Haha it's a book anything is possible! Including making someone immortal!!!

[*Ramya*]

Also, I really like the matchmaking process but don't think it's fair, so as long as the elves enforce a rule that not marrying someone that wasn't on your matchmaking scroll isn't a bad match, I'm good!

[Joana]

Yeah true!! I kinda want to see who will be on Sophie's and Fitz lists....

[*Ramya*]

Okay, now I ship Amy and Keefe!!!!!!

[*Ramya*]

Joana wrote: "Yeah true!! I kinda want to see who will be on Sophie's and Fitz lists...."

Same!!!!!!!

I ship the Keefester--except now, the Foster is Amy, not Sophie!!!!!!!

[malayna]

I don't know how I feel about that...I don't really ship it...

Keefe is just too old for Amy!

[Joana]

Keefe is 14 and Amy is.... 11ish? Do I have that right?

[Joana]

Isn't Fitz 2 almost 3 years older than Sophie?

[*Ramya*]

Well, according to the elves' way of counting, Amy is about 12 (at least, she almost is) and Keefe is 15 by now, so I get what you're thinking, but remember that Alden is almost a 100 years older than Della?

I get that Amy is a human, but I just love the ship for some reason. Amy would probably be a little like Sophie, since she was also raised by humans, so maybe Keefe would like that.

I know it's weird-but I (for no reason other than it feels right) ship Amy and Keefe.

Can't wait to see some SISTER BONDING in Book 6!!!!!!!!

[*Ramya*]

I really hope Amy takes a big part in Book 6-if we see her for like, 5 pages or only one chapter, I will be crushed.

Wow. I hope others will change their mind like you did, Joana.

[*Ramya*]

Joana wrote: "Isn't Fitz 2 almost 3 years older than Sophie?"

Actually, Fitz is about only a year and a half older than Sophie.

[malayna]

Hey all!!! Finally finished the book and it was so AMAZING! I plan to write a review on my blog later on, maybe at 4 or 5, so please feel free to check it!

www.iread2016.blogspot.com

Also, I HATE KEEFE so much right now. Fitz and Sophie were literally SO CLOSE. Oh my gosh.

I can't believe I have to wait a whole nother year for the next book to come out!

[jpnmusings]

I know!!!!! *ugly sobs*

[*Ramya*]

Well, I don't necessarily HATE Keefe, but I was REALLY mad at him.

Either way, Fitz and Sophie are now closer than ever, and do you remember what he said? He said he would tear down the house to look for her human family if he had to, just to make her happy.

And now, back to waiting for the SIXTH BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About 358 days left until BOOK 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Joana]

I know Fitz is the best, Keefe you don't have a chance!!! Now the miserable countdown until book 6 begins....

[Ashlyn]

I can't wait another year!! *sobs* And I love all the Sophitz moments in Lodestar!

[*Ramya*]

I know! And there are so many of them!!!!!

Alao, I made a thread called Quotes so that we can post quotes that we love-I can guarantee most of them will be Sophitz quotes!!!!

[malayna]

Hey all! Like I said, I finished Lodestar, and I just reviewed on it on my blog iRead.

www.iread2016.blogspot.com

I will only be posting this here so...it will also be on my update feed for all friends and followers!

[Joana]

I know I plan on re-reading it lol

[Ashlyn]

Same. I will probably reread it like 20 times to tide me over (and because it is amazing!) until book 6 is released.

[*Ramya*]

Same. I actually re-read my favorite scenes (mostly Sophitz scenes) every. Single. Night.

Also, check out some really cool predictions and a list of the main characters ages on the thread: Predictions!!!!!!!

[Ashlyn]

I'll totally check that out! And yeah, can't get enough rereads of sophitz moments! XD

[*Ramya*]

:)

[jpnmusings]

Wow I thought I was only one SOPHITZ geek enough to do that. (Read SOPHITZ scenes over and over and over and over)

[Joana]

Welcome home lol WE ALL CANT GET ENOUGH OF SOPHITZ!!!

[*Ramya*]

Wow. Really? I have the feeling that we are practically the same person!

[*Ramya*]

Joana wrote: "Welcome home lol WE ALL CANT GET ENOUGH OF SOPHITZ!!!"

True - I will NEVER get enough of Sophitz - at least, not until it sails!!!!!!

[malayna]

I need Sophitz to sail or I might even go as far as to not read the rest! Actually, just joking. Hopefully :)

[Joana]

Yeah same!!!! I want it to sail already!!!!!!! Question for you guys! Okay here it goes... Do you guys prefer for when the series ends that it leaves us imagining the characters future or for it to fast forward when they are older/get married/ have kids?

[malayna]

Definitely fast forward. Totally. I need to know the actual thing. Otherwise I go crazy!!!

[jpnmusings]

SOPHITZ has literally become my life... I NEED MORE SOPHITZ SCENES TO SLOBBER AND AND OBSESS OVER!!!!! BOOK 6 WHY SO LONG!!!!!!!! AhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (there I'm satisfied....

[Joana]

Okay same here!! I have heard ppl say that it kills it when it fast forwards that they prefer to leave it to the imagination. So for example the series ending when Fitz and Sophie would kiss and admit they like each other... that's it... the end... and we hope they just have a amazing life together lol

[jpnmusings]

If that happens I will just... Die.

[*Ramya*]

Die in a good or bad way?

Well...you know what I mean.
