Perfect for fans of Loveless and You Should See Me in a Crown, this wry and insightful novel from the author of Epically Earnest features a sweet ace romance and a secret social media advice account that goes wonderfully, terribly astray.

Mia knows what she’s talking about.

Class schedules, significant others, existential life crises—you name it, she’s talked someone through it.

The problem? No one actually takes her advice.

So when her latest round of (very sensible!) guidance is ignored, resulting in a class flyer stapled to her best friend’s arm and her brother going steady with a girl he doesn’t have feelings for, Mia is done talking. Instead, she creates HereToHelp, an anonymous account to give advice. If her friends don’t know it’s her behind the account, maybe they’ll finally listen for once.

Throw in the girl of her dreams, a plethora of sound (and not-so-sound) advice, and a couple of best friends who seem to have a lot more to hide than Mia knows…and Mia could use some advice of her own to make it through this senior year.

Hilarious and deeply insightful in turn, Thanks for Listening is a must-read for fans of Not My Problem and Eliza and Her Monsters—and any reader who has wanted to feel fully, truly, completely heard.

Praise for Thanks for Listening:

"Horan neatly subverts tired genre tropes, forgoing manufactured drama for a strongly developed character-driven narrative. Sadie and Mia’s romance moves beyond the question of whether a relationship between asexual and allosexual partners can work, investigating the how of it with humor and heart. Mia’s strong, likable voice propels the story, and readers will come to care about the cast around her as much as she does.... Take our advice—this one is a joy from start to finish." -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Horan sensitively and astutely examines the asexuality spectrum by juxtaposing Mia’s inner monologue with her interactions with Sadie as their relationship develops. The girls’ organic feeling and respectfully rendered romance will have readers swooning, while complex friendship dynamics are explored with emotional maturity." -Publishers Weekly

"A fantastic and much-needed ace romance." -School Library Journal

"Snarky, know-it-all Mia is endearing and her flaws true to life... A coming-of-age ace romance perfect for theater nerds." -Booklist

"How do you update Oscar Wilde for the internet age? In Molly Horan’s charming debut, the answer is to wrap the dazzling wordplay around a gentle—even earnest—exploration of new love and old wounds. Epically Earnest is a hopeful, romantic, sharply observed comedy of manners with a winning cast, and a group dance number that belongs in the rom-com hall of fame." -Amanda Sellet, author of By the Book and Belittled Women

"A delightful story that puts Ernest in the shoes of a modern girl as she navigates internet fame, first love, and the real meaning of family. With dazzling wit and heart for days, Horan’s stand-out debut would make Oscar Wilde proud!" -Kaitlyn Hill, author of Love From Scratch

"A lighthearted romance with just enough drama and some sincere exploration of familial and romantic relationships." -Kirkus Reviews

"Horan’s snappy banter and lighthearted approach to conflict make for a breezy read." -Publishers Weekly

"Debut-author Horan delivers a lighthearted, feel-good romp with engaging characters who are clever and well realized." -Booklist

"Non-stereotypical portrayals of queer identity make this a worthwhile addition to high school collections." -School Library Journal
