Blurb
Wanting to understand the most fundamental questions of the universe isn't the province of ivory-tower intellectuals alone, as this book's enormous popularity has demonstrated. A young girl, Sophie, becomes embroiled in a discussion of philosophy with a faceless correspondent. At the same time, she must unravel a mystery involving another young girl, Hilde, by using everything she's learning. The truth is far more complicated than she could ever have imagined.

A mystery story of a girl who receives a lesson on the history of philosophy and discovers different ways of looking at the world. Although I was slightly disappointed by the ending, it was nonetheless a great way to learn about the different philosophers and their way of thinking through Sophie's experience.
