MERIDIAN by Amber Kizer

This book had promise, but fell short on the story. Just a little too sappy, Meridian's just a little too weak, and not enough answers for the character to know what they need to do, why or how. It always seemed like everyone was keeping the ultimate revelation away from Meridian, but with no real purpose. Her mother kept from her that she was a Fenestra, but why since someone tried to kill her on her 16th birthday. Her mother said she wanted her to have a normal life, but her parents were standoffish and never connected with her emotionally or physically until they had to send her away. Auntie kept Tens' real purpose from her, spent very little time teaching Meridian the right way to let people pass and seemed to want to hide who and what Reverend Perimo was. If Auntie can sense the Anternocti, way can't she figure out that Perimo is one of them. Meridian's health also seems to improve over time being with Auntie and learning to guide the dying spirits through, but no one seems to explain that this will happen or why. The finally Tens is her protector as well as the person she's destined to be with, but they hide this from her as well until later.

There are so many secrets one wonders why Meridian listens to or believes anything they say.

All I can say is there is a grain of a story, which could be a television series, but it's too saccharine sweet to be anything but a fluffy book.
