I really really really really really want this. But it looks like it could be years decades until that wish will be granted.

HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT THIS HAS A TITLE I AM EMOTIONAL OH MY GOD.
—
will i ever stop editing this? haha no i will not
i will write you a love letter, ms schwab, just for a teaser.
i will write you as many bad and cringe worthy love letters as i possibly can for this book.
hopefully you'd just prefer fan letters but do know that love letters are an option.

OKAY I DON'T NEED HIS FIRST NAME ANYMORE.
i just need this book in my hands like right now
—
Can't Mackenzie just like... break into the school's offices or whatever and look for Wesley's file...
I just really want to find out his first name, is that so much to ask for?
—
I am very much hoping that Mackenzie and Wesley become Crew here because I really wanna find out Wesley's first name.
—
Oh my god.
Let this be true.

[Steph Sinclair]

I really hope she self-publishes this because I would totally buy it.

[✨ Helena ✨]

I need this more than I need AIR. 😤

7/15/2019: Kind of insane that I initially wrote this 5 years ago and I'M STILL WAITING.

PLEASE tell me this is going to happen. Please. Because I need more Wesley Ayers in my life.

Edit 8/6/2014: IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN! http://veschwab.tumblr.com/post/92246...

4.27.21 update Sometimes I dream about this book and just wonder....

orginal review

Apparently I haven't already marked this as too read? Whatever. I don't think I'll be able to trust again until this book actually exists.

[Carmen]

If this doesn't happen I might cry from the lack of Wesley Ayers in my life.

[☆ Mira ✷]

no pressure victoria but i waaaant this sometime in my lifetime

[Ari]

Dear Victoria,

You know you want to write this, you know we all want you to write this... I bet the characters are screaming from within: "let us out, let us tell the whole story!"

I hope you will..
Soon..

[Gabi]

Okay when in the heck are you coming out!

I miss you!

And I need you! (haha see what I did there)

MORE IMPORTANTLY

I need more Wesley!

Where you at third book!?

[Ashley (Bound to Love YA)]

I need this third book to happen.

Not a want.

A need.

But I keep seeing this date go from 2015...to 2016...to...sigh...



It's alright. It'll be worth the wait.

[♠ TABI⁷ ♠]

the first two books getting new makeovers & a snazzy paperback bound-up gives me hope for this getting published sooner than later.

[Valentina]

pls tell me that this book will be published eventually

[Serap · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ahhhh en yakın zamanda çıkmalı ve çevrilmeli gerçi bence tüm kitaplarını acil olarak çıkartmalılar😉😍❤

Look what I found... :D
Victoria has provide these images:
1. Owen's body in a glass coffin.
2. Wes throwing Mac a private birthday party in the coffee shop at night.
3. Roland in the real world.
This is fantastic, OMG I'm so excited for this!!!

I sure need a data release for this book. It's so amazing!!!!!

[marky]

I knew it! There's going to be a third book!



Okay. Keepers and Crews.
Time to do some jumping jacks and push-ups. 'Cause there are still more histories's butts to kick!!

[Leenah]

I feel like Schwab lost interest in this book. And series, probably. The Darker Shade of Magic series is cool and all, but shouldn't this take precedence?

[Ala'a]

Is this book ever gonna happen?
_______________________________________________

STILL WAITING
_______________________________________________

Still waiting....... I'm so upset. I don't even think I remember enough about these books anymore. THAT'S how long this is taking
_______________________________________________

I've been waiting for this book for a good while now. GIVE. ME.

[Pia Cohamco · Rating 5 out of 5]

Please don't give up on Book 3. I can't thoroughly explain in words how much of an impact reading The Archived and The Unbound did in my life. I've lost a lot of my loved ones and how I wish there was some way I can see them again or maybe even bring them back. Reading this series, no matter how painful and relatable the story is, also saved me from depression and all my what-ifs in life. Please Victoria, I really hope you can give me the Book 3. I am dying to know what happens next. This book comforted me more than any human being can do for me. Please! I cannot wait to hear what comes next. Your biggest fan.

[Alyssa Giselle]

woo! a third book. but whaaaat?! so long, i can't wait. i need more dosage of Mr. Wesley Ayers and the mystery of the Archive/Narrows. waaah!

[Krizia Lee]

Final book? I'm not ready for this wonderful series to end. Oh well, at least I have a year to prepare myself for the ending. Love for Mac and Wesley!!

[tracy]

I NEED THIS NOW. NO ACCUSES. ME WANT ANNDDD NEED.

[Charissa]

It might take years before this ever gets released - if it ever gets released, but

[rachel, x]

officially moving this off my tbr because i've lost all hope 😢

[Charon Lloyd-Roberts]

Finally some closure we're getting a final book, thank goodness this is one of my favorite trilogies and I just hope it all wraps up nicely and now we wait to see the cover and of course a final summery which I'm looking forward to seeing whenever we get one but still I'm looking forward to this.

Speaking of which Victoria Scott we still need closure for the Fire & Flood series yeah that still needs to happen too! Just putting that out there.

Hi 2022 me here, came back here to see there where any new updates miight re-read the first two books again because hell I miss these characters.

And that between my stupidly huge manga pile that I'm devouring at the moment.

ngI, as much as I LOVE this series, Victoria stated that as much as she wants to bring us the 3rd book, she stated that it most likely would not happen due to sales and publishing reasons. :( I am literally brawling my eyes out. I need more of Mac and Wes in my life. Even stating it was a cancelled series.

[Bel]

Things Victoria needs to work with the third book...
- Lyndsey (the bff) she’s almost non-existent. Take her off the book and nothing will change the main story. I want more of her involvement with Mac!
- Crew Partnership of Wes and Mac
- Wesley’s first name
- Sako
- other branches of the Archive (to expand the world)

I just realized today that I've been waiting 5 years for this book. All the agony and desperation and feels of waiting came back in a rush. When will we ever be free?!

07/24/2014
DESPERATELY WAITING FOR THIS TO BE RELEASED.
