Title: Hush Hush


Author: Becca Fitzpatrick


Genre: Paranormal, Young Adult, Fantasy, Romance 


Pages: 400


Stand alone or series book: this is the first of an amazing series


Summary: 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.

My Review:  Norah Grey from Hush Hush is a very strong independent character who isn't afraid of anything and yet she's desperately looking for someone to face the world with. However, none of the guys at her school appeal to her, that is until she mets Patch. Not wanting to admit that she is attracted to this mysterious new kid, it takes some warming up to for her to admit it.


Patch the dark, mysterious, dangerous, sexy new guy. Knows more about Norah than she does about herself and some how he instantly finds himself on her bad side. Noah just can't find it in her to trust Patch, he's different from all the other guys that she knows. However for whatever reason Noah finds herself drawn to Patch, which is nothing like her. Somehow she knows that Patch is bad news and soon does she learn he holds the greatest secret that could cost her life.


I absolutely loved the story Fitzpatrick created, I have to say I was hesitant to start this book because I was expecting more of the sappy love story. However I ended completely regretting putting it off for so long. Again, I found myself not able to put down this amazing read. This story was a great dark story that wasn't too overpowering. I do want to say that there is no point of even attempting to predict what will happen a chapter or more ahead, this book has a lot of un-inspecting twist to it. This is a very good read that I strongly recommend to any paranormal novel lovers.
