Hush, Hush
by Becca Fitzpatrick
I couldn’t finish this book, dearly on the cause that I just had no connection to any of the characters. I didn’t laugh, or understand what and why they were doing this. My mind kept wondering whenever I read it, and I just couldn’t get hooked into it. The characters like….Uhhh…Nora that’s right and Patch just didn’t attach to me like when I read other books. They had no personality besides being one dimensional, and the one with the most personality was Patch. But honestly I didn’t like him either.
What caught me: It was that damn cover!!! Oh the cover was so pretty, and I’m attracted to pretty shiny covers. It was in grayscale, and some of the feathers were a red tint, and some were black and it just caught my eye. And being that it was shiny, I got it. I wish I didn’t waste 7 or whatever it coasted to buy that damn thing. I could’ve bought the next book in the Fire and Ice series, but no, I was too stunned by that magnificent cover. This book has now taught me…never judge a book by its cover, because in the long run, it may come around and wipe whatever brain cells you had left. I think if I keep reading books like this, I’ll just wither away, and just become a crazy person. I hate books that have a Twilight like look and feel to them. Overall Twilight has ruined the idea of storytelling, and this is one of them.
Hush Hush’s plot revolves around Nora trying to figure out who and what Patch is. Beyond that I don’t really know, because once again…I gave up. I just couldn’t do it. Nora just bugged me. My nerves were growing less and less each time she talked. And Vee…oh god, her friend. Reminds me of some of those girls at my school, who you hear talking, and you just want to knock their teeth in, and tell them to shut the hell up. Patch was easier to stay with, but yet again he was just creepy…like Edward creepy. I don’t like it when the boys are stalker like, and just have to have you. It irkes me, and I hate when the girl gets herself into trouble. Females are not that dumb! But books like these makes me wonder if people really believe that. I don’t know, but this book was horrible. If I stop reading a book before page 100, that’s not a good sign.
Another thing…the writing was choppy, and it didn’t flow. I felt like I had no idea what was going on. It was like the book Fallen…I was confused at where we were. What city were we in, what was the landscape? The characters were explained okay, but once again I just couldn’t picture them at all. I couldn’t picture anything, it was like my mind was a blank slate, but yet nothing was happening to make a picture. It was just a jumble of words to me, along with bad dialogue. Why do people frolic to books like this? These things make me brain dead, and I can’t afford that. I’m already brain dead enough as it is…I can’t have my brain go into a standby and just forget working. It still makes me wonder how this generation is going to go. Are we really delving into reading something that is complete and utter trash? Has humanity lost it’s creativity? I just worry about this society sometimes when it comes to creativity. I am done ranting…I’m tired from reading this thing.
