The series includes the following titles: As life with her kind develops, Sophie will discover that not everything is peaceful in paradise and her existence may be one small piece in an ever-changing puzzle. Unfortunately, Sophie still can't quite manage to totally fit in: despite just recently learning about the very existence of elves, she somehow knows confidential information that only the ruling elves should be privy too. Luckily, she finds a few friends who help make the transition from her old life to her new one a little smoother: there's the handsome Fitz, his younger sister Biana, the laid-back Dex, and the mischievous Keefe. In the blink of an eye, Sophie's entire world is turned upside down she leaves her human family to live with a pair of elves who become her new guardians and she's enrolled into Foxfire, an elvish school where she has to unlearn all of her human-gained knowledge while simultaneously learning how to hone her telepathic abilities. Though skeptical at first, Sophie quickly believes him when he shows her the Lost Cities, lands inhabited by elves and other creatures from myth and fairy tales. When the boy finds her again, he introduces himself as Fitz, explaining that he's an elvin Telepath just like her.

So, when she comes across a strange boy whose mind she can't read and who somehow knows this, she tries to run. She's too afraid to tell anyone, including her family, for fear of being turned into an experiment. While this might sound useful, it's caused Sophie no small amount of grief: she can't turn this ability off and her attempts to mitigate the constant background noise make her stick out. All of this, however, pales in comparison to the secret she's kept for years: she can hear the thoughts of others and has been able to ever since a traumatic brain injury when she was five. Even amongst family, she sticks out, being the only skinny blonde among chubby brunettes. Despite only being twelve, she's already a high school senior, thanks in no small part to her photographic memory. Keeper of the Lost Cities is a series of middle grade fantasy novels by Shannon Messenger.
