Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick
4.0

My Rating : 4🌟

'I knew it was wrong. He was the worst kind of wrong. He was so wrong it felt right, and that made me feel completely out of control'

This story revolves around our main character Nora Grey, who is drawn to her mysterious and sexy seat partner in her class, Patch. This story unfolds her confusion, deals with all her trust issues and finding out that she is right in the middle of centuries-old battle between two powerful races.

The first thing i loved was, the friendship between Nora and her crazy best friend Vee Sky. Even when Vee puts her in a really dangerous situation, (even when Nora warns her not to do that particular thing) she goes out of her way and try to help her. This really made me feel good and it held a really important plot weight. Plus it made me miss my friends!

The second was how the character development of Patch was done step by step. I definitely felt the mysterious aura around him and it was such a fun ride trying to discover the truth about him along with Nora! The first half of the book is all about Nora trying to discover more about Patch. The second is about her wanting more to know about his past! And i felt that the character development was done really good, and it definitely gets good towards the ending!

The story-line is the usual 'Bad boy finds love and turns good', but with a really good twist! And let us just talk about Patch's power for a minute now. If i had someone like him in my life, i would definitely be freaking out!(Thank god its a book, and we can all enjoy reading about Nora's suffering). I felt that few character introductions and development were done in such a way that i could predict the ending (kind of) which was really a let down for me personally. Otherwise this book would have been a 5-star read! Also in few places, i felt that the way Nora thinks was out of her character. Also i personally felt the relationship between Nora and her mother was not covered quite well. It might be done in the upcoming books, but it lacked that touch for me personally. I was straight up laughing at the relationship between Patch and Nora's mother (in a good way)!

The way the book ended was definitely good! I was squealing at the end after what happened! It was definitely not a cliff-hanger, but it left me yearning for more and i am expecting the rest of the books in this series to be delivered any minute now! I thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend if you are looking for a really fun and mysterious book which deals with a girl dealing with trust issues, and includes Fallen Angels, power and fight for power.
