A supernatural mystery plays out against the backdrop of contemporary Ireland, exploring the theme of acceptance without ever being heavy-handed. ODonoghue has a keen eye for the complexities of friendships; I predict this one will be catnip to teenage readers. The Observer From the author of Scenes of a Graphic Nature, this genuinely creepy novel is veined with mordant comedy and dreamy romance. The Guardian Fabulous, richly imagined YA, full of folklore and romance: delicious. Katherine Rundell overall this is a satisfying, entertaining read - with a well-deserved sequel due next year SFX Thankfully, All Our Hidden Gifts by Caroline manages to present a non-binary character with subtlety and warmth. Perhaps it works so well because, being an occult-tinged mystery-romance steeped in Irish folklore, theres a lot else going on.

About this product

Product Information

A dark and supernatural contemporary teen debut by multi-talented author and journalist Caroline O'Donoghue. So gripping, so intriguing, so layered - All Our Hidden Gifts feels like a book that should have always existed. Kiran Millwood Hargrave A seductive and brilliant book. Fiercely, furiously good. Melinda Salisbury The most authentic teenage voice I've read in ages... I was utterly bewitched. Holly Bourne Grim, gripping and gorgeous. I devoured it. Deirdre Sullivan Maeve Chambers doesn't have much going for her. Not only does she feel like the sole idiot in a family of geniuses, she managed to drive away her best friend Lily a year ago. But when she finds a pack of dusty old tarot cards at school, and begins to give scarily accurate readings to the girls in her class, she realizes she's found her gift at last. Things are looking up - until she discovers a strange card in the deck that definitely shouldn't be there. And two days after she convinces her ex-best friend to have a reading, Lily disappears. Can Maeve, her new friend Fiona and Lily's brother Roe find her? And will Maeve's new gift be enough to bring Lily back, before she's gone for good?
