The publisher on this edition

On the night a mysterious comet passes overhead, a group of kids encounter a supernatural being who promises to grant them one wish each, but they take too long and the comet passes. 35 years later, the comet returns…and their wishes begin to come true. What We Wished For is an extraordinary exploration of the sweeping concerns of our time—gender and sexuality, isolation, technology, power, polarization—filtered through a funhouse mirror of magical realism and experienced through deeply relatable characters whose desires, foibles, and failings are nothing compared to their heart-wrenching humanity.
