Sophie has spent the last 7 years struggling to ignore others' thoughts. And failing. But when she meets someone else who can hear thoughts, too, her Sophie has spent the last 7 years struggling to ignore others' thoughts. And failing. But when she meets someone else who can hear thoughts, too, her life gets completely reworked. Dinosaurs are nothing like she was taught (plus they still exist in carefully guarded sanctuaries), boys like her, and she's an "anomaly."
Aside from her getting kidnapped and frightened--well, and constantly getting sent to the school doctor after accidents--this is really a very light-hearted and non-violent book. Practically perfect in every way!
This book was delightful! I kept waiting for it to turn sour, but it was well-written all the way through. I will admit that I didn't really buy the "no such thing as magic," mostly because the characters manifest abilities and there didn't seem to be any real explanation of how telepathy works for only some people. I absolutely loved, though, the fact that the author managed to claim no magic and still have tons of fun, completely impossible things casually worked into the story.
I think I saw a little foreshadowing as to who the worst bad guy is, and I seriously hope I'm wrong. Time to read the next book and find out!...more
