Second time reading the series and I am just as much at the edge of my seat as I was the first time. Very compelling and I am just in love with the characters.

Ich muss sagen, ich fand Nora in diesem Buch sehr anstrengend mit ihrer Doppelmoral. Den Plottwist hab ich schon einige Zeit erwartet, wenn auch nicht die Eröffnung des großen Gehimnisses. Ich denke, ich werde die Reihe weiterverfolgen, auch wenn es die folgenden Bände nicht in Audioform für mich gibt.

Wird der Polizist Bora in Zukunft mehr glauben? Was wird mit Patch und Nora nach Jeffs Festnahme passieren? Wie wird sich die Geschichte, um Noras biologische Qbstammung weiterentwickeln?

This book was a rollercoaster
2 ppl love each other but with a lot at stake, if they gave their relationship up, they break up and do the stupidest thing ever, tried to hurt each other make each other jealous and hook up with other ppl.
The story is definitely 5 stars regarding plot characters and world building
Everything connects in a brilliant way
And I am falling for this series


In my opinion, it definitely tops the Twilight series even if I am head over heels for these movies.
Here it is packed with action plot emotions and lot of layers and secrets to uncover with each book
Highly recommended!

I just thought of something. If Hush, hush was in opera it would be the opening line, than CRESCENDO is the main part, yes? The one with the most action, thrill and stuff like that.

There were some things that really bothered me, but I'll think about them later.

Sada gledam koliko imam citata na ovoj knjizi a koliko na prvoj i stid me je :D Možda je problem u prijevodu, jer čitanje treće knjige mi je bilo senzacionalno i potpuni drugačiji doživljaj ali prepisujem da je to jer sam čitala original - sada znam 100%no da se prijevodom gubi ono nešto u knizi, ono nešto što sam pisac ostavlja. let's keep that in mind sljedeći put kada čitam prijevod bilo čega.

I fell in love whit this book series completely!!
This was the first young adult book I read and it made me discover that I love reading and that's why it means so much too me.
It is very well written and a very good story. I fell in love with all of the characters good and bad!
I can't say enough good thing about this series and I will definitely read this several times again. I'm actually craving to read this series soon!!

I would love to read more from the author and will follow her books in the future. I really do recommend her!

I also want to share an album I fell in love with and listening to while reading this book series ant it was " chaos and the calm" by James Bay.
I always listen to music while reading and I love the effects it gives and you and I fell like I can really relate to the book by music.

The audiobook reader spoiled the villian in the first chapter by using the voice of that character. Nora was annoying. Patch needs to stop being all moody and mysterious. You're like 17... Okay, on the book 3
