Although a happily ever after was a foregone conclusion in Twilight, we now get to experience it in Remembrance. I wasn't sure that I would, but I loved getting to read about these beloved characters as adults. Suze was still Suze, albeit a bit more mature and with a lot more thinking things through. Don't fear, she hasn't lost all her impulsiveness though. Jesse was already more mature, and he still is. Gosh, could he be any more dreamy than he is here? Forget Grey's Anatomy. Jesse is the real Doctor McDreamy. Also, it was just so much fun to read about him being part of the modern world. And does anyone do calmly pissed off with as much aplomb as Jesse? I loved that scene in the restaurant with him, Paul, and Suze!Speaking of Paul, he's back causing trouble as usual. I've always gotten a kick out of the dynamic between him and Suze, and it's a blast here. I loved how it all played out with Suze entangling him in her nefarious plan. Also, I can't spoil it, but there is a fun surprise involving him. This was kind of like a high school reunion in that we get to catch up with all the people from our youth and marvel over how they turned out. Some are just what we expected, and some we could have never predicted. Either way, it's fun to see them.
The ghost in this one was the most memorable one in the series, apart from Jesse. I teared up in the end with how both sad and beautiful it was. Of course, we also have what we've all been waiting for--the wedding of Suze and Jesse. And sexy times! Nothing explicit, of course, because Jesse would never allow that.

Remembrance A Mediator Novel Meg Cabot 9780062379023 Books Reviews
I love Meg Cabot. I spent a lot of years reading her Princess Diaries series, and she is probably the reason I read so much today. So it might shock a few of you when I say...I think her Mediator series might be my favorite series she's ever written.
I really enjoyed this new installment of Suze and Jesse's story. Like I blew through it so quickly, that it made me realize that maybe I'm just not reading the books I actually want to anymore. Whenever I pitch reading this series to someone I explain, "it's kinda like Buffy, but like with ghosts." I stand by that explanation. Suze has an attitude and sometimes she does really stupid stuff, but that's why I enjoy reading about her so much!
I think the main thing I like about this series is that it's a part-paranormal, part-investigation novel. In order to help the ghosts move on, Suze has to first figure out why they are still here, and sometimes the ghosts are just not helpful. Like Lucia the little girl ghost that Suze tries to help in this novel. A little violent ghost that has plenty of reasons to be so angry about her death. I do like that Suze really can't do everything on her own and she enlists her research team (CeeCee) and the muscle (Paul Slater begrudgingly) so she can solve the issue of what is keeping Lucia on this plane.
I actually love that Cabot makes it pretty clear that we were never supposed to like Paul. He's such a jerk, and that's really clear is this novel with him trying to knock down Suze's old house that may effect Jesse! I hate that dude, so I'm really glad in the end of this novel everything works out for Suze and Jesse.
There were a couple things about the adult Suze that made me really like her. First off all, in this novel Suze is the one that is more interested in sex than Jesse. Of course Jesse wants to abide by his beliefs of not having sex before marriage, which makes sense due to his upbringing and the time in which he was alive. I kinda of love that the woman is the one interested in sex, because we don't see that a lot. Even though woman like sex too! So I really appreciated that being included. The other thing I loved about her was the swearing. Dude, I swear a lot, like I just can't help myself anymore, so I loved to see another woman around my age swearing up a storm and everyone getting mad at her. That is pretty much my life, so I could totally relate.
I will admit that the plot is not that different from the other books in the series. There's a ghost Suze has to help, Paul tries to mess up her relationship with Jesse, and Suze has to figure everything out. But in all honestly, that's what I wanted out of this novel. I wanted to come back to these characters I loved and read them in action again. If Meg Cabot writes anymore novels about Suze, I will buy them all.
I have been a big fan of the Mediator series since the beginning. Prior to reading Remembrance, I went back and reread the entire YA series and then Proposal. After completing the previous books, I moved on to Remembrance.
The plot is very intriguing and the side characters are very fun. I enjoyed this aspect greatly.
Unfortunately my biggest complaint involves character development. Both Jesse and Paul have completely lost any amount of improvement that was gained during the YA series. Paul specifically is now a complete monster of a person. He is only a villain with absolutely no redeeming qualities.
The worst part however is Suze. All of her charm has disappeared to the point where you wonder why anyone wants anything to do with her. She sees no wrong in anything that she does, and seems very self-absorbed. There are multiple sections in the book where Suze mentions how attractive she is, and other sections where she applauds everything she does. There really isn't a single moment of self reflection or acceptance of any wrongdoing. It gets very old very fast, and you eventually wish you could tell her friends and family to run away from her and never look back.
Overall the plot is enjoyable and the book is absolutely a quick and easy read. I wouldn't consider this an adult novel by any means, so it should be fine for current young adult readers.
I would still recommend reading this if you were/are a fan of the YA series. However if you are a YA fan consider treating this book as a standalone novel and not as a continuation of the series. It may be more enjoyable this way.
