Good!! I'm glad you don't take them personally, that would be bad LOL

I will! It's a science fiction/fantasy, its really hard to explain but I'll probably talk about it sometimes if I stay active on here

I'm glad you're Sokeefe sometimes!! Maybe someday we shall convert you...mwahahaha

Not offensive exactly. You just believe something that I don't believe. But here isn't the place to discuss it lol, I don't want to start actual argument arguments :)

AND YES!!! She was so awesome!! It was at a local bookstore so there were only like, 40 people. My friends and I wore costumes, and my sister won one of her prizes... we got a lot of extra swag because of the small crowd, too. She was really inspirational and answered a ton of questions. I wish she could've come back this year

I'm actually not entirely sure Oralie is Sophie's mom- but it's the best theory I have currently. Firstly, if you look at the passage in (Exile?) where Sophie is asking if Kenric is her dad, something seems weird. It's just so strange to me that Sophie would ask if Kenric is her dad, and completely leave out asking about Oralie, without ever even having the possibility come to mind. It's almost like Shannon is avoiding it. It's weird to me that Oralie would be blonde, care about Sophie, be connected to the Black Swan, and Sophie would never think to ask about her... She's just a very perfect guess that it seems like Sophie leaves out. But regardless of that, with the whole "finding out would set off a chain reaction that could topple our world" quote, it seems like Oralie could be a good fit. It can't be someone insignificant, and if Oralie was her mother, that could set off a huge chain reaction.

What gives me pause, though, is that it may even be something more insane that would "topple their world"- like another species, or an ancient, or Bronte or something. But it also can't be too insane of an answer, because Mr. Forkle is nervous about her finding out ("and that's ALL I can tell you" "should you ever land on the correct answer" -those are very loose quotes, I might not have every word but you get the point).

Also, some people say that the books say that Sophie hasn't met her parents. However, where I read Mr.Forkle just said he can't answer that when she asked. Do you know where people are getting this from???
