liz089's Review of Crescendo (Hush, Hush, #2)

by Becca Fitzpatrick

La esperada continuación del best seller Hush, hush.

Una novela de amor, intriga trepidante y ángeles diabólicamente seductores.

A pesar de su fascinante relación con Patch y de haber sobrevivido a un intento de asesinato, la vida de Nora dista mucho de ser perfecta. Patch está empezando a alejarse y Nora no sabe si es por su bien o porque cada vez está más interesado en su archienemiga Marcie Millar.

Además, una serie de imágenes sobre su padre la acosan de manera recurrente. A medida que Nora se sumerge en el misterio de su muerte, comienza a sospechar que su sangre nefilim puede estar relacionada con el asunto.

Pero Patch no le da ninguna respuesta, por lo que ella decide investigar por su cuenta, arriesgándose hasta el límite.

¿Qué verdad se esconde detrás de la muerte de su padre?

¿Puede contar con Patch o este le oculta secretos más oscuros de lo que ella imagina?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The sequel to the New York Times bestselling phenomenon, Hush, Hush!

Nora should have know her life was far from perfect. Despite starting a relationship with her guardian angel, Patch (who, title aside, can be described anything but angelic), and surviving an attempt on her life, things are not looking up. Patch is starting to pull away and Nora can't figure out if it's for her best interest or if his interest has shifted to her arch-enemy Marcie Millar. Not to mention that Nora is haunted by images of her father and she becomes obsessed with finding out what really happened to him that night he left for Portland and never came home.

The farther Nora delves into the mystery of her father's death, the more she comes to question if her Nephilim blood line has something to do with it as well as why she seems to be in danger more than the average girl. Since Patch isn't answering her questions and seems to be standing in her way, she has to start finding the answers on her own. Relying too heavily on the fact that she has a guardian angel puts Nora at risk again and again. But can she really count on Patch or is he hiding secrets darker than she can even imagine?

So I’m currently reading the Hush Hush series again. Very stupid of me, but last week I came to the conclusion that I never finished the serie. I have never read the last part, Finale, while I do have it in my bookcase.. For like a couple of years XD Soo.. I could just grab the last part and start reading it, but since it has been a long time, I don’t think I will remember what happened in the other parts.. Coming to the conclusion that I should just start all over again with this series.

It was one of my favourites, so reading it again only makes it more fun. I have so many books in my bookcase, but I barely have time to read the ones I haven’t read. So reading something I’ve already read is new for me ! And I like it ! I have not bought them and stored them to never do anything with them again.. My goal has been all along to read them multiple times. And this gives me a good motive to do just that ! Ha !

So right now I have just finished Crescendo, and I got to admit that I don’t love it as much as I remembered it !! Yes it is written easy, you go right through it in no time.. but well.. It is not as passionate as I thought it was. The love between Nora and Patch is not as beautiful as a remembered, and I got to admit that I am annoyed by her sometimes.. She is so naïve on one side, but on the other side is she very paranoid and sees danger everywhere..

Not that there is no danger.. because well, there is danger around everyone ! Almost literally !! There are sooo many bad guys/women in this series.. It is starting to get ridiculous XD What happened with the one evil dude/chick ? In this book almost everyone she meets is evil and wants to hurt her !!

Including Patch.. she claims to really love him, but she does not trust him at all. In fact, she suspects him for almost everything that goes wrong.. Without given him the benefit of doubt… *sigh* And Patch himself… he is just a jerk most of the time ! And not in a charming way..

But well.. I am going to finish this story anyway !! I just needed to get this out haha ^^
