What a nostalgia read!



I have read Hush Hush only once, and I hate it. It has been more than a decade since I read this book. I want to see if this book held up.



When I finished reading Hush, Hush, I had to mull it over for a while. I really wasn’t sure what to say. I am absolutely love the cover (athletic looking, darkly mysterious fallen angel, contorted in midair in gray-scale? What’s not to like?).



It didn’t work.



Inside was the most confused piece of writing I’ve read in some time. Becca Fitzpatrick didn’t seem to know quite what she wanted, only that it had to be Ominous, Scary, sexy, and Dangerous. With that in mind, she threw a bunch of things and let her narrator, Nora, and sort them out. Nora, understandably, had some trouble with this, and the result is a thoroughly frustrating heroine …

Another Twilight clone but this one may be the prettier one. If you hated Twilight then maybe you would like this a little bit more.

The plot was a bit predictable but the characters made it worthwhile. Nora was very inconsistent but at least she wasn't a stupid Bella. Nora actually thinks for herself and goes beyond the looks. Stupid Bella. -.-" Patch on the other hand. His bad ass attitude annoyed me. Just a bit to much. And Vee. She annoyed me as the story progressed. Why would you set up your bestfriend with someone who she insists that the person wants to kill her? Sounds like Vee is desparate to get laid.

Overall, this was a decent book. Another forgettable one. Read this one to pass the time (it took me two and a half hours to read this one).
