Different dialogues for inner thoughts

Question

Whenever I write inner thoughts I do something like:
What is she thinking?, Maria thought.
I find myself using the word thought, think, or wonder a lot when writing inner thoughts. Is there a way to write their inner thoughts without using dialogue tags?

I just use italics for writing thoughts, and maybe use dialogue tags every now and then to make it clear it's thoughts. I think it's mostly understood that italics are thoughts, so you could probably get away with no tags whatsoever if you really wanted to.
