Wishful Thinking Theory Page

Welcome to the Wishful Thinking Theory Page. This is a place where you can discuss confirmed, debunked, and unconfirmed theories from the Wishful Thinking book.

Unconfirmed Theories

 * Related to Big Sky Country: Many believe that due to the similar hair colour of the BSC MC, the Wishful Thinking MC is related to or simply is the BSC MC.
 * Standalone: After both tutorials about adopting an animal mention the respective animal will be seen "throughout the book" rather than "througout the story", it is believed that it is intended to be a standalone book.
 * Carmichael as antagonist: after Chapter 5, it is believed that Carmichael will turn out to be an antagonist or even the big bad, similar to Viktor Montmartre. The reason given is that he appeared too nice towards the Main Character.

Confirmed Theories

 * Gender-locked: It is believed that this story will be gender locked due to both potential covers featuring the same woman, who is presumed to be the MC. It was confirmed by PB on March 6th, 2019, that we can only play as a female in this story.
 * Genre: Many believe that this story will be a rom-com similar to LoveHacks due to the goofy nature of one of the covers. It was confirmed by PB on March 6th, 2019, that the genre is a "quirky romcom".
 * MC can talk to animals and hear their thoughts: Due to the appearance of emus on the cover and that the premise is about a reporter who can read minds, it is believed that the MC can talk to animals in addition to people. This is later confirmed later in Chapter 3 when she is seen able to hear the thoughts of a cat.
 * Dark Secrets: Due to the MC's psychic ability, it is believed that she will find out someone's dark secrets, such as them being a criminal. It was confirmed in Chapter 3 when the MC discovers that the cat lady is an Animal Smuggler.

Debunked Theories

 * Set in Australia: It is believed that the events and story will take place in the Australian continent due to the appearance of emus, which are local animals, in some versions of the book's cover. In a blog post, PB stated that the story doesn't take place in Australia. One of the sneak peaks also states that the story takes place in Northbridge, which is located in the US.
