Format: Book
Sophomore Nora Grey struggles with the death of her father
and her mother’s long work-related absences. When she is paired up with Patch
in biology class, her initial reaction to the mysterious, quiet guy is not
exactly positive. Yet, she somehow feels drawn to him. As dangerous and
frightening events start to occur in Nora’s life, her contact with Patch seems
to keep her grounded. But, Patch is hiding a lot about himself, and his secrets
could be deadly for Nora...
The first in the Hush, Hush series, this novel is perfect
for those who enjoy supernatural romance stories. While there are some
similarities to Twilight – girl meets
mysterious boy in a science class being one of them – Hush, Hush focuses on fallen angels interacting with humans. I love
Fitzpatrick’s writing style; I found myself turning the pages and losing track
of time. The character of Nora shows resilience, strength and intelligence, traits
that some young adult heroines lack. The reader also does not discover all of
Patch’s secrets by the end of the book, which is a perfect way to draw readers
to the next in the series, Crescendo.
I am certainly looking forward to reading the second book.
If you have been debating upon reading the series, movie
rights for the series have been optioned, so there could be a movie based on the
books in the near future!
