    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    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&&&8212;gender and sexuality, isolation, technology, power, polarization&&&8212;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.

    "WHAT WE WISHED FOR had me gripped from the first page -- after all, I played magic and superheroes just like the heroes inside these pages! But then, it twists! Then, it&&&39;s a leap from wonder to adulthood that would make IT: PART TWO weak in the knees! Here&&&39;s a gripping, provocative look at the wishful innocence of youth and realities that creep in and break them down. It&&&39;s a true, raw, modern myth—one you can&&&39;t miss!"
