I don't know. I've always shipped Sophie with Fitz but it seems unlikely after this book. Maybe things will bounce back in the next book, as some people said, and have more balance, but I doubt it at this point. And yes, Sodex seems pretty dead.

Which leaves me trying to figure out Sokeefe, cuz that looks like all that's left. I really thought I would be okay with this if it happened, but the closer I examine it, the more it seems like a bad idea for Sophie. Or maybe I'm just trying to think up a logical explanation for the sudden dislike I have of this ship, who knows.

I think my main problem is that SophieXKeefe is mostly Sophie supporting Keefe. It seems very Keefe-centered most of the time, and even when he tries to protect her, it feels more like Keefe is just trying to satisfy his own hero complex. Plus, I'm not sure how it's going to work in the long term. Sure, he's all romantic and devoted to her now, but look what happened between Keefe and his last best friend. (Makes me mad whenever I think about it)
