Crescendo Review

 

Overall review:

 

I have got to say I am disappointed with this book. I LOVE Hush, Hush and immediately went out and got Crescendo so I can continue in this world. I read many reviews prior to reading this and some didn't care for it and others loved it as much as Hush, Hush.

I really didn't like the back and forth nonsense that was going on with Nora. She loves him and wants to be close to him and the nest second she's all 'I don't need him I can be independent.'. She pushes him away and is all 'I cant love you because the archangels, blah, blah, blah'. Of course I just don't finish a book so I finished reading. I really didn't agree with the angle and path Becca went down with this book. I am not gonna spoil anything but I didn't agree with the people that turned out to be on the other side of the 'war'.

In addition to Nora being all 'I love him' and 'I cant love him', she seemed different and more of a how should I put it...a pansy. I really liked that Nora in Hush, Hush was all brave and moving forward with little resistance, but in this book she turns around and is nothing like the person in Hush, Hush.

I can not forget Patch. I was really sad that it seemed to me that Patch was barely in this book! Truthfully, the only reason I kept reading was to figure out what Patch was going to do.   I still love Patch, but I don't know if he is going to be enough for me to keep going with this series.

Hush, Hush Review

I have got to say I love this book! This was yet another book that my best friend recommended for me a while back but never gotten around to it until now. I have got to say I love Patch and who wouldn't? He of course is a bad boy and very vague. All of the characters are great and well described. I love Nora's best friend Vee!
For me many things held my attention and made me not want to put this book down. First is of course Patch. He is dark and mysterious and who doesn't love mysterious? Second was Nora. I really loved this girl. She is not like me at all and I love how she made this book so great. In addition what girl isn't complete without her best friend? No girl. I love Vee and she is great throughout this book. This book made me laugh many times and made me very curious. Another thing that made this book great was the ending. Oh my goodness the ending was just...awe. Great ending! I just really enjoyed this book and I would strongly suggest to you to read it!

Here is the synapse:

For Nora Grey, romance was not part of the plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how much her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch came along.

With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Nora is drawn to him against her better judgment.

But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure who to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is, and 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 Nora 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 her life.

Next up in the Hush, Hush Saga is Crescendo.
