Hush, Hush by Becca FitzpatrickMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I have read many rave reviews for this book, (including my co-blogger on My Pile of Books already) and some that didn't like the sexual tension and how it was presented.
As long as this book isn't read by super hormonal teenagers I thought it was great! Patch was predatorial at times, but I think Nora's reactions to him were soemthing many girls can relate to!
I was that nerdy girl that had crushes on the "bad boys" in school. One in particular. We flirted in class ALL the time, and he exasperated me much the way Patch exhasperated Nora. Of course I didn't take it any farther, but reading this book was kindof a "what might have been" experience for me, if I had let our flirting relationship be anything more.
I also loved the mythology.
My biggest complaint. Take a basic story arch of Twilight and/or The Dark Divine and you practically have the same story. Just a different "monster". But hey, it works, it sells and I couldn't put it down last night!

Thanks for the review! I own it, it is just in my pile of books (no pun intended) to read!
Sara I got it for Christmas and just barely read it! I have so much to read all the time!

I loved it! I went out and bought it after I was done (I read a library copy). I cannot wait for the next one!!!
