In this riveting debut, a telepathic girl must figure out why she is the key to her brand-new world—before the wrong person finds the answer first.

Twelve-year-old Sophie has never quite fit into her life. She’s skipped multiple grades and doesn’t really connect with the older kids at school, but she’s not comfortable with her family, either. And Sophie has a secret—she’s a Telepath, someone who can read minds. But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well…she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth, and almost instantly she is forced to leave behind her family for a new life in a place that is vastly different from what she has ever known.
     But Sophie still has secrets, and they’re buried deep in her memory for good reason: The answers are dangerous and in high-demand. What is her true identity, and why was she hidden among humans? The truth could mean life or death—and time is running out.

I loved this book and book series I would recommend it to anyone. 10 out of 10

Wow! when i started this series it became like i didnt exist! all i did was READ THESE BOOKS! im waiting for my library to get all of them! it is crazy how good these books are. if you like action adventure and a pinch (ok a little more than a pinch) of magic, this series is for you!

Everyone you have to read this. I read all 8 books, and i WROTE A WHOLE REPORT ON THE AUTHOR, SO YEAH. Its fun!

Best book ever! I really enjoyed this book and have read it, let''s see, 12 times already, which is the same number as Sophie's age! I love the action and surprises and suspense ad everything! This book is truly a book that everyone can enjoy, even if you like books with a different genre. Sophie's not a normal girl, or elf, instead, she may be the answer to all things in the elves world. But some people don't like that, and the secrets in Sophie's mind that even she doesn't know of make people want to steal them, and that's not good, especially when you don't know who exactly the good or bad guy is.......

I think she is now 13 or 14???

I love the series I am at Flashback ♥️♥️♥️♥️Best book Ever

I finished all the books, but there's a 8.5 book coming out!! I can't wait!!

This is such a great start to the series. Adventure, magic, and creatures that we once thought were just stories come alive in this thrilling tale. It captivates you, and leaves you begging for the next one. I should know, as I'm always begging for the next one. I'm on the eighth book. and the series just gets more compelling as you go along.
