“Mysterious Ways by Wendy Wunder is a delightful YA featuring a high school girl who can hear thoughts. It's got great representation of mental illness, as well as a perceptive look at the stresses modern teens are dealing with, while still managing to just be a fun read. It's a delight!”
— Anna • Katy Budget Books
Bookseller recommendation
“Maya is a seventeen-year-old who can read minds. Her story addresses mental health issues and more with both seriousness and humor as she learns to cope with her unique skill. The pop culture references made me laugh out loud, making this book both insightful and funny.”
— Samantha • Raven Book Store
From acclaimed author Wendy Wunder comes a sharp and hilarious coming-of-age novel for fans of John Green and Nicola Yoon about an omniscient teenage girl who must grapple with whether there’s such a thing as knowing too much...
Seventeen-year-old Maya knows everything. When she looks at someone, she instantly knows their history, their private thoughts, their secret desires, their most tragic failures. Combine these private miseries with the general state of the world, and it's easy to see why Maya's power starts to get her down…
Which is why she was sent to the Whispering Pines Psychiatric Facility, and also why starting at a new school is going to be such a challenge. Now, faced with Tyler, a cute guy she actually wants to know everything about, Maya realizes that maybe her power isn't so horrible after all. Maybe she can use it for good. Maybe she can even get the guy. Or maybe there really is such a thing as knowing too much.
A Macmillan Audio production from Wednesday Books.
Wendy Wunder is the star-reviewed author of The Probability of Miracles and The Museum of Intangible Things. When not writing, she often works as a rogue librarian and is currently a bookseller at Porter Square Books. She lives in Boston with her writer-husband, dancer-daughter and two dopey (but adorable) pets with no particular talent.
Reviews
"Seamlessly moving between the humorous and horrific realities of Maya’s omniscience, Wunder (The Museum of Intangible Things) chronicles the protagonist’s stay at Whispering Pines and her eventual enrollment at a new school where she makes a friend and happens upon potential romance." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"The depiction of Gen Z anxieties feels spot on…A humorous and stimulating reading experience.” - Kirkus
"A poignant, funny, and relatable story." - Booklist
"Wunder’s strong voice and intense emotion takes on real Gen Z issues with heart and humor. Maya’s story tells us that just because you’re omniscient doesn’t mean you don’t have things to learn. And her journey is all backed by a great soundtrack."—Gretchen Schreiber, author of Ellie Haycock Is Totally Normal
"Sharp, hilarious, heartfelt." —Nicola Yoon, #1 New York Times bestselling author

“A witty, clever, meaningful, kind of kooky life-sometimes-stinks-but-it’s-all-we-have tour de force.” - School Library Journal (starred)
"Funny and entertaining." - New York Times Book Review
