Synopsis

Gifted: Better Late Than Never by Marilyn Kaye

Goth girl Jenna Kelley has the ultimate tool to stage a teenage rebellion: she can read people's minds without even trying. When her alcoholic mother is hospitalized, a stranger shows up who says he's her long-lost dad and promises a better future. Too good to be true? Her gifted classmates think so, but Jenna is so determined to have a real parent around and a somewhat normal life that she might have lost her ability to listen.

Media Reviews

Kaye draws her readers in from the get-go, satisfying them in each book, but leaving them wanting more. Strong female characters take the lead in each title, but the author also brings in perspectives of the other gifted students throughout. Both selections are fast paced and entangling, giving them wide appeal, particularly for reluctant readers. School Library Journal

[Kaye] is working her usual magic by slowly giving readers a look at her cast of interesting characters. Teens Read Too
