Summary

Tiffany Tudwell is cursed. She once tripped over a backpack and fell face-first into a trash can. She had pink eye on picture day. One time she tried to hold back a sneeze and farted on the cutest boy in class. She longs for the spotlight, but it’s safer to stay hidden in the shadows, where the curse can't reach her and no one can make fun of her. Until the night two meteors collide over her backyard, giving Tiffany the ability to steal people’s talents for a day―like stealing mean girl Candace’s beautiful singing voice in the middle of play rehearsal, or drawing an incredible self-portrait after borrowing the teacher’s pencil. Her power even gets the attention of the most popular boy in school, the smooth-talking Brady Northrup. But her powers can’t solve everything―or can they? When a local philanthropist announces a fundraiser contest, Tiffany, with Brady’s help, decides to use her powers to save her dad’s failing planetarium. And maybe discover her own talent along the way..., --Amazon
