I am currently reading the book Keeper of the Lost Cities #7: Flashback by Shannon Messenger. Flashback is the most recent book in the keeper of the Lost Cities series. This series is about an elf named Sophie and her friends Fitz, his sister Biana, Keefe, Sophie's cousin Dex, and the twins Tam and Linh. In this book Sophie learns that she is not as strong as she thinks and with the new threat of Shadowflux threatening to over they don't know where to turn. Like always, in the end they think life is better. Sophie and Fitz confess their love for each other and think that everything will be alright. Little do they know that their plans will be ruined.
In this book, one of the main problems is Sophie Foster's love life. There is a love triangle between Sophie, Fitz, and Keefe. It is suggested that both Keefe and Fitz are in love with Sophie and Sophie cannot choose between them. The only problem is that in the Lost Cities, relationships are difficult. Like some religions, you can only be with someone who is a "match". This can be determined many ways but like in the Islamic culture, this city gives a list of candidates to the one searching for a match. They make this list based on a network of people that they know that would be compatible. They then choose someone to get to know and then from there they form a relationship. This is a very important part of both the Islamic culture and the culture of the Lost Cities.
Overall, I think that this was a very good book but before you read it you need to read the rest of the series. Shannon Messenger does a great job of reflecting the characters feeling into the book and making you feel the way they do. I love this series and all of the characters especially Fitzphe. This book is the perfect mix of love adventure and fantasy. The setting makes the book very interesting because it is in the Lost Cities and features Atlantis and a ton of mythical creatures! You should definitely read this book series.
