She is now the author of nearly fifty books for both adults and teens, selling fifteen million copies worldwide, many of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers, most notably The Princess Diaries series, which is currently being published in over 38 countries, and was made into two hit movies by Disney. She worked various jobs to pay the rent, including a decade-long stint as the assistant manager of a 700 bed freshmen dormitory at NYU, a position she still occasionally misses. After six years as an undergrad at Indiana University, Meg moved to New York City (in the middle of a sanitation worker strike) to pursue a career as an illustrator, at which she failed miserably, forcing her to turn to her favorite hobby-writing novels-for emotional succor. Fortunately she grew up in Bloomington, Indiana, where few people were aware of the stigma of being a fire horse - at least until Meg became a teenager, when she flunked freshman Algebra twice, then decided to cut her own bangs.

Meg Cabot was born on February 1, 1967, during the Chinese astrological year of the Fire Horse, a notoriously unlucky sign.

Librarian note: AKA Jenny Carroll (1-800-Where-R-You series), AKA Patricia Cabot (historical romance novels). Now might be a good time for Meena to start learning to predict her own future. See, while Meena’s always been able to see everyone else’s future, she’s never been able look into her own.Īnd while Lucien seems like everything Meena has ever dreamed of in a boyfriend, he might turn out to be more like a nightmare. Maybe that’s why he’s the first guy Meena’s ever met that she could see herself having a future with. It's a dark side a lot of people, like an ancient society of vampire-hunters, would prefer to see him dead for. (Not that you’re going to believe her no one ever does.)īut not even Meena’s precognition can prepare her for what happens when she meets-then makes the mistake of falling in love with-Lucien Antonescu, a modern-day prince with a bit of a dark side. See, Meena Harper knows how you’re going to die. Not that Meena isn’t familiar with the supernatural.

Sick of hearing about vampires? So is Meena Harper.īut her bosses are making her write about them anyway, even though Meena doesn’t believe in them.
