More About This Book

Overview

A gift…or a curse?

Jessica Mastriani has never liked attention. All she wants is to make it to high school graduation like any ordinary girl. But when Jess is struck by lightning, she becomes anything but ordinary: suddenly she has the ability to locate missing children.

Now Jess is getting noticed in all the wrong ways and by all the wrong people. The media is obsessed with her and her story. The FBI is tapping her phone. And what’s going on with sexy senior Rob? Soon Jess learns the hard way that not everyone who is lost wants to be found….

With no one to trust, it's up to Jess to decide what to do with her new power—before it’s decided for her.

Meet the Author

Meg Cabot
Meg Cabot

Meg Cabot is the author of the #1 New York Times best-sellers All-American Girl and The Princess Diaries series, two of which have been made into major motion pictures by Disney. Meg is also the author of The Mediator series, the Airhead series, and many books for adults. She currently divides her time between Key West and New York City with her husband and one-eyed cat, Henrietta.

Biography

Meg Cabot knows that one of the best cures for feeling gawky and conspicuous is reading about someone who sticks out even more than you do. Her books for young adults invariably feature girls who have extraordinary powers that carry extraordinary burdens. Cabot's Princess Diaries series offers up the secret thoughts of Mia Thermopolis, who discovers at age 14 that she is actually the princess of a small European country. This revelation adds significantly to her extant concerns about crushes, friendships, school, and other matters falling under adolescent scrutiny.

Cabot, a native of Indiana weaned on Judy Blume and Barbara Cartland, was already a successful romance novelist (as Patricia Cabot) before she began writing for young adults; her alter-alter ego, Jenny Carroll, began a new series shortly after The Princess Diaries debuted. The Carroll books are divided between the Mediator series, starring a girl who can communicate with restless ghosts; and the 1-800-WHERE-R-YOU books, in which a girl struck by lightning acquires the ability to locate missing people.

Cabot writes her books in a conspiratorial, first-person style that resonates with her readers. She has obviously kept a grip on the vernacular and the key issues of adolescence; but what makes her books so irresistible is the mixing of the mundane with the fantastic. After all, who wouldn't like to wake up and be a princess all of a sudden, or a seer? Cabot takes such offhand notions and roots them firmly in the details of average, middle-class American life. She has also tiptoed into mystery and paranormal suspense with other YA novels and series installments.

Cabot continues to write adult novels under various permutations of her given name (Meggin Patricia Cabot): from 19th-century historical romances to contemporary chick lit. And, as with her books for teens, these romances have earned praise for their lighthearted humor and well drawn characters.

Good To Know

Some interesting outtakes from our interview with Cabot:

"I am left handed."

"I hate tomatoes of any kind."

"I really wanted to be veterinarian, but I got a 410 on my math SATs."

"Writing used to be my hobby, but now that it's my job, I have no hobby -- except watching TV and laying around the pool reading US Weekly. I have tried many hobbies, such as knitting, Pilates, ballet, yoga, and guitar, but none of them have taken. So I guess I'm stuck with no hobby.

    Not the best book to read!!

    I finished reading the two books that were combined in this single bound book, but when I put it down I had one thought, "What was the point?" I admit it was a good storyline idea, but the writing is mediocre, the plot is boring, and the characters do not have much depth. I suggest buying a book that is actually worth reading. If you enjoy fantasy, Tamora Pierce has great books (I would start with the song of the lioness quartet - my favorite).

    LOV THIS BOOK!

    I LOVE THIS BOOK!!! THIS WAS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE BOOK I HAVE EVER READ! I would suggest it to maybe 10 years old or older. only because it's about a girl who got struck by lightning, and she can now find people who are homeless, but she runs into very difficult situations. very very hard to put down!

    highly enjoyable

    I really enjoy reading meg cabot's books. They always make me laugh out loud (and this one is certainly no exception) One thing I thought could have been better would defintly be the relationship between Jessica and Rob( he was a little bit of a bland character i thought) but overall this story was very interesting and funny and I would definitely recommend .... haven't went to buy the second one yet but am definitely going to and am looking forward to reading it.

    Good Read For Younger Teens

    I loved Meg Cabot's books when I was in Middle School, but now that I'm an 18 year old senior I realized how juvenile her books are written. When I read the back cover of this book I thought "This will be interesting. A girl struck by lightning and then gains magical powers? Awesome!" When I started reading the book I was incredibly disappointed.
    Meg draws out every little detail to the point where you're saying "OK! I got it the first time!" The idea of "show not tell" is nowhere in this book.
    If you're looking for romance don't get to excited. The scenes of romance are so minuscule there is not point for them even being mentioned.
    Although the plot is a great idea I don't feel like Meg owned up to it, it fell flat to me.
    I would only recommend this series to younger teens (12-15).

    Good But confusing Narrator

    I loved this book. I disliked that Rob didnt show that he loved her. Another thing I dont like is that the Narrator of the story, Jess, can be confusing when she talks in her head. If Ms. Cabot used shorter sentences I think I could comprehend the text better. Over all it was a good book and I beleived the storyline. What I didnt understand was why after blowing up two things jess or rob didnt get charged anything. Any who, good book and I would suggest it to anyone!!!!!!
