I liked this book, but Exile is my favorite of the series. My favorite character is Sophie, but I also like Councillor Oralie. The part I liked most was when Keefe decided to quit being with the Neverseen, and I didn’t like how he didn’t come back sooner, since the only thing that he really helped Sophie with was getting the caches. I like Sophie’s new ability, but it was hinting that she would use the Enhancer ability to unintentionally help Neverseen. It also mentioned more about humans in this book, so I wonder what will happen with them in the future books with them.
It was also a big surprise when Mr. Forkle died, and when Sophie’s little sister recognized her, and I wonder if the elves will erase her memories again. I also want to know who Sophie’s real parents are. A couple of times throughout the book, there was a lot of new information and was a bit hard to follow and maybe a bit too fast-paced, but overall, I enjoyed it.
