Product Description
The original sassy and spooky series from the queen of teen, Meg Cabot. Now with vamped-up covers - appealing to fans of paranormal romance.
Book Description
Meet Susannah Simon: she's a typical teenage girl, who just happens to be a ghost-hunter . . . oh, and she's also dead-over-heels for Jesse - the sexiest spook ever! But can this girl get her ghost? In LOVE YOU TO DEATH Suze arrives in California and has barely unpacked when her mediator skills are put to the test. A vicious spirit in her new school is hell-bent on making her life a complete nightmare, but Suze is more than ready to kick some serious ghost butt if she has to. In HIGH STAKES Suze's new life is looking up - cool friends, pool parties and getting to know Jesse (swoon), but then a desperate spirit asks for her help. Suddenly she's on the trail of a creepy local businessman, who just might be a vampire. Life just got dead complicated. Again.

Format:Paperback
I came across this book because I love any supernatural/romance books. I was recommended it after reading Hush Hush and loving it.
Story:
9/10
Its about a teenager, Suze who grew up in New York and is tough but really funny. She has to move to California due to her fathers death. Despite the fact that her dad is dead and the fact that she can see/interact with ghosts the books aren't depressing at all! When she arrives in California she meets the lovely Jesse who she tries to kick out as he keeps hanging around her room. The books tend to follow a similar format where she has a new ghost(s) to deal with and try to solve the reason why they cannot move on. I did find halfway through the series I started to get a bit bored of the formula - but I am so glad I persevered as it gets really exciting towards the last few books!
Writing style
9/10
First person writing style, extremely funny, without many sad parts. Meg Cabot (author of Princess Diaries and many other successful novels) is a great writer who knows how to get you hooked - thankfully there are 6 books in total! The style of these books is more adult than her Princess Diaries- there isn't much swearing or nudity but it feels more like young adult than a children's book. (I love it and I'm 24!)
Characters
10/10
Suze is brilliant, she deals with problem ghosts with her fists and is constantly getting into fights and doesn't tend to think before she acts. She made me laugh all through the books, and had me cheering her on.
Jesse is so handsome - Be prepared to fall for him! He died a hundred years or so ago and is a bit of a cowboy (in a good way!) he often reverts to speaking spanish.
Summary
Get this if: You love supernatural romance stories with the female who kicks butt! Twilight, Hush hush, shiver, torment lovers with most likely love this.
Don't get this if: you hate ghost stories, don't like stories with some supernatural/religious links. Want more of an 'adult' novel.

I don't really think I can put into words just how good this series is. This is by far one of my favourite supernatural/young adult book series. It has a bit of everything in it, Love, Comedy, Action etc... I could not put this book down. It was nice to read about a really strong female lead, who is quite tough and very funny. I love how Meg Cabot explored the relationships between the characters. My favourite being the relationships between Susannah and her brothers, Jesse and Father Dominic. The way she wrote Susannah and Jesse's relationship was really sweet and kept me engrossed the whole way through. I loved the fact that Jesse was such a gentleman throughout the whole series, you really end up loving his character. I have recommended this to 5 other people who have all enjoyed these books a much as me. It kind of reminds me of ghost whisperer but a lot more light hearted. I would highly recommend this to anyone who loves supernatural romance type of books, it's worth the read and the books in the series get even better as the story goes on.

I first read these 5 years ago, and was instantly caught. The lead character Suze is a believable kickass teenager with a whole host of undeadly problems.
after her mum remarries she is sent to live with her new family including a step dad and 3 teenage step brothers, but being the mediator she helps those who have died to complete any unfinished business before crossing over. This obviously gets her in unexplainable situations and you find yourself laughing along to the brilliant situations Suze has to navigate through. All the while trying not to fall in love with the hot ghost who haunts her own bedroom.
this series is a witty well written book and though i own nearly 200 books, still remains in my top 3 series. definitely one to read!!!
