Shadowland (The Mediator, Book 1)
: This was a great first book in the Mediator series. It kept you enthralled to the very end. The way Meg Cabot devolpes her characters is phanomenom. This book is one of my favorites I have every read. I would recommed this book to anyone. Even the one's who hate to read will absoulty love this and will want to play more. It's a most read!!!!:)
Susannah Simon has traveled who knows how many miles from New York to California just to live with her mom's new husband and his 3 dumb sons. As if things couldnt get worse, there is a ghost living in her room. Sure, Jesse's got the look that would have gotten him elected prom king in no tome flat. (you know, if he were still he alive) But cute isnt exactly the word for how Suze thinks Jesse looks, more like....
Dangerous
But it doesnt end there. Her new principal, Father Dominic, has the same "gift" as her, there is an angry girl ghost haunting her locker, AND trying to kill the guy who asked Suze out.
Suze tries to talk to Heather, but she almost gets killed. (If Jesse hadn't came to the rescue)
Now angry, Heather puts Father Dom in the hospital. This pushes Suze over the edge, now she wants to do something so extreme, that even Jesse can't help her if things take a turn for the worst.
Be sure to read this book, and see if Suze can stop Heather before it's too late....
Ever since I read "all-american girl" I loved meg cabot. I read all the princess diary books. I found the mediator and decided to give it a try. It was very good. It's about a girl named Sussanah. Her mom get's re-married and she moves to california. she is a mediator which means that she can talk too and see the dead. A ghost named Jesse is in her room. This is one part I don't like. Before she can even get too know Jesse, she yells at him to get out. Anyways, the first day of school, she sees this ghost who shot herself because her boyfriend broke up with her. Long story short, she has to battle the ghost.
Theres one more thing that I didn't like. She is mean to the dead dad. If your dad was dead, you'd want to talk to him right? Instead she doesn't really like talking to him.
The real reason anyone reads a review is to find out if it's actually worth buying, right? So I won't waste your time giving you all the juicy details of this amazingly cute and entertaining book.
If you haven't read any of Meg Cabot's other books, then this is definitely where you want to start! The Mediator series is by far her best work yet (in my opinion). The characters have depth, they're interesting, the plot is pretty original, and of course, the main male character, Jesse, makes reading this series even more exciting! And, if you're worried about how it might end, all I will say is that it ends perfectly. It ends exactly how it should end.
If you have read other Meg Cabot books, I can just say that you won't be disappointed if you buy this series. It's even more adorable than most of her other work.
I loved every page in every book. There was absolutely nothing that I hated and wished she had done over. A lot of people find it hard to accept the fact that this girl can see ghosts, that she falls in love with one, and that she eventually travels through time in an unusual way. But don't let that stop you from reading this series.... you really will love it :)
This book was really good. It is the first in a series of six where Susannah Simon, a sixteen year old girl, moves to California from New York with her mom. Suze is a mediator, someone who can see and communicate with the dead. In this book she meets a ghost named Heather who is hanging around her former locker, the one that Suze now occupies. She is sticking around to get revenge, but Suze wont let this happen and throughout the book she tries to get Heather to move on to the other side, its her job after all. Meanwhile, Suze tries to find out more about her roommate, Jesse, a ninteenth century hottie, who died in her room 150 years ago.
