Rereading KOTLC is like. This thing smells really bad. Except this one smells worse. Wait no this one is the worst one. Actually scratch that, this one is like all of those combined times ten. Well, about that—

sw_messenger: WOO HOO-it's almost time for one of my favorite KEEPER traditions: THE IGGY COLOR VOTE!!!

👏🏻🎉👏🏻🎉👏🏻🎉👏🏻🎉

For those who don't know, I always let my readers vote for what color and style Iggy has in each KEEPER book, since it was a reader who gave me the idea to keep changing his color in the first place. And since I'm hard at work writing KEEPER 10, it's the perfect time to get Iggy's new look figured out, that way I can make sure it ends up in the story.

So mark your calendars! The Iggy vote will start on Monday, August 25 right here on my Instagram Stories. Make sure you check back and vote for your favorite options!

And I know this is probably going to make everyone ask when book 10 is coming out-and sadly I *still* don't have that information. (I promise I'm not trying to torture you. My deadlines have just become extra complicated for lots of publishing-is-weird reasons.) But hopefully this helps assure you that book 10 is in the works and WILL be coming out as soon as it possibly can be. I'll share the official release day as soon as I know!

ALSO, don't forget: you'll be able to read the first chapter of KEEPER 10 in the paperback of UNRAVELED, which goes on sale in the US on November 11, 2025. The first printing of that edition also has fancy sprayed edges featuring a light leaping design I drew, so if you want all that shiny goodness I highly recommend pre-ordering!

That's all for now! See you on Monday to do some Iggy-voting!

~xoxo Shannon

[If you can't see the image, it shows Iggy's look in each book and says: Vote for Iggy's new look in Keeper 10! Head to my stories on Monday to vote for the color and check back on Wednesday to vote for the style!)

Guys, they chose the funniest possible title for Unraveled in French.

[nerdytvturtle]

What?!?

[fintan-pyren]

It's "The Book of Revelations"

like...I think that name might be taken already

[fintan-pyren]

Le New Testament a une révélation dans son livre, mais nous avons beaucoup des révélations 😌

[aurenflare]

"un livre moyen contient 1 révélation" en fait c'est une erreur statistique. unravelld de révélations, qui contient plus de 10,000 révélations, est un donnée aberrante et il faudrait pas l'avoir compté.

[milo-igidk]

my favorite part of unraveled was when he said "its unraveling time" and unraveled all over the place
