Hush Hush is a book that follows a fairly popular theme of the Young Adult genre, that being fallen angels. Let me start off by saying that this book, while great is not very memorable. I had to re read a few things for this review because I just could not remember. It could also be because this book reminds me so much of Fallen by Lauren Kate. In both books there are a number of similarities but I enjoyed the book.
The main female character, Nora Grey was an odd teenager that had little interest in boys until her Biology teacher rearranges the class seating and places her next to the new kid, Patch Cipriano. Nora is instantly drawn to him despite the fact that everything about him screams danger.
Every since that first day Nora seems…show more content… I was not impressed. I think Rebecca tried but utterly failed with Nora and Patch. Let me list them thoroughly why I believe they made a horrible couple.
* Nora is an idiot. Complete and utter idiot.
* Patch is basically a woman beater and rapist dressed up as your dream high school rush.
* The story made no sense and there was so much inconsistency that it made me want to pull my hair out.
I call Nora an idiot because each time she recognizes danger, instead of running she invites it for tea. There is one thing to make a mistake once or twice but to continue to do it throughout the entire series just baffles me.
Patch is a horrible heroes for any woman to look up to. He deliberately puts Nora in danger, threatens her then makes it clear he only wants her for one thing with his actions and words. I don't know if I should laugh or pity the women who talk this character up.
I just can't spend another moment writing about this book. It has some good parts but they're totally out-shined by the bad and I honestly don't think this book is appropriate to be in the young adult category. A shame really because I can see where she was trying to go. It just never got there. I rate this book two and a half
