This was a delightful middle grade adventure and I am definitely ready to get caught up in Sophie's world and tag along for the rest of her adventures.
While the story overall is quite fun and fast paced, there's still some real pain such as loss of a child, having to leave your family and grief. It's presented in a good way and the story is super intriguing.
Sophie's a 12 yr old prodigy who hasn't quite fit in anywhere. Her ability to read people's mind definitely doesn't help. When a strange boy approaches her out of nowhere, and he can also read minds, she thinks she's finally made a friend like her. Little does she know her life will never be the same again.
