In for some laughs mixed with the supernatural? Then Meg Cabot is the best place to go.

In the first of the series 1-800-WHERE-R-U (which another television show on Lifetime is based on) you're introduced to Jessica (Jess) Mastriani. Jess is an ordinary, run-of-the-mill, short, fist-fighting girl. In the first chapter she punches out a football player for calling her best friend fat. But detention doesn't bother her as long as she continues to sit next to the oh-so-hot and sexy Rob Wilkins.

Now feeling the need to excercise after the fat comment, her best friend leaves her car at home. Jess has to walk.

So what do you do, walking home in Indiana during a lightning storm? The most there is to hide under is the corn stalks. But there's also the bleachers--the metal bleachers. Which is what they choose.

Which is where she gains her newfound psychic power. Which is a new kind of trouble she can't just go to detention for.

Jess soon realizes this gives her a choice, allows her to take control of another person's destiny in a way. And the FBI wants a piece of that.

Should have chosen those corn stalks, Jess.
