About this listen

Goth girl Jenna Kelley can read minds, the ultimate tool for rebellion. But when her alcoholic mother is hospitalised, a stranger claiming to be her long-lost dad appears, promising a fresh start. A real parent, a normal life – it sounds too good to be true.

Her gifted classmates think so, but Jenna is so determined to have a real parent around and ignores her powerful intuition. Her gift for truth might be useless if her heart refuses to listen...

Perfect for young readers who enjoy a mix of school drama and paranormal adventure, this light-hearted action-adventure series was adapted into a hit CBBC television drama in 2025.

Gifted

Meadowbrook Middle School is an ordinary school with ordinary students—except for the Nine. These students look like the others, but they're not. You could call it a skill, a talent or a disadvantage, but each of these students is unique—they're gifted.

Marilyn Kaye is an acclaimed author of young adult and middle-grade fiction, best known for her Replica, Gifted, and Out of This World series.
