Hey guys!
A few days ago, I finally caved and read Hush, Hush. It's been on my to-read list practically forever, but I never had a chance to read it. Until now. This is just going to be a mini-review but it should give you guys the gist!

I really like this cover. Its simple, but elegant. It shows Patch... falling from heaven.
Official Description:
Romance was not part of Nora Grey's plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how hard her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch comes along. With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Patch draws Nora to him against her better judgment.
But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure whom to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is and seems to know more about her than her closest friends. She can't decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.
For she is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those that have fallen - and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost Nora her life.
The characters were complicated and complex. The plot had me hooked.
Really the only issue I had were the characters' lack of concern over certain details. For example, if your best friend tells you that a boy physically threatened her, would you really push to go camping with him? (If you answered yes, you are rather a (A) terrible friend or (B) asking to die.)
Oh, and also the fact that Nora is supposedly doing well enough in school to go to an Ivy League college. If that was true than none of the event in this book could happen because of homework, etc. (I'm aware how nit-picky that is, but I'm getting sick of books where school is not as time consuming as it really is!)
All in all, a good book. I highly recommend it.
Happy Reading!
