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 read the first book in 2 days. It was the best book ever!

Sophie Foster, a normal 12 year old high school senior who reads minds. Unable to share the ability with anyone, Sophie thought she would have to cope with it for a lifetime. The day she met Fitz, that all changed. Sophie finds out that she is actually an elf and has the ability to do all sort of amazing things with her mind besides telepathic abilities . Now she discover a new world filled with elves who have amazing abilities just like her . However Sophie is different; she can do all sorts of things that normally take years to learn without training. Struggling to fit in to her lifestyle, Sophie is mistified by the ways of elves which are so different than those humans. Moreover she has found several memories in her mind that aren't hers. Is she being controlled by another force, or is there more to the story? This book was amazing. It was definetly a keeper.
