Keeper of the Lost Cities is a captivating adventure following Sophie, who has had the ability to read minds ever since an accident when she was five, and her discovery of her true identity, where she really came from, and why she's never felt like she fit in. The twists and turns made this book hard to put down, and the emotional heart of it endeared me to all of the characters and their quirks.

One of my childhood favorites. While it is really enjoyable, it doesn´t hold up as well. Would still recommend it, especially if you are under the age of 15.

This is my favorite book ever. It has an incredible world build, character development and over all plot. It's my favorite book series in the world. Sophie is one of the best characters I've ever read about and her story is incredible and addictive. I used to hate reading and this book is what got me to begin to love it. I don't think I would be where I am today without it.
