Books #104 and #105


Finale (Hush, Hush, #4)Finale by Becca Fitzpatrick
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I am so disappointed in this book it's not even funny.  Hush, Hush is one of my favorite books and Patch is one of my favorite book boys.  This final book of the series just did not meet my expectations.  Then entire middle of the book could have been left out.  I was hoping this book would have gone back to the romance between Patch and Nora but there really wasn't much of that.  And the Epilogue?  I really didn't care what happened to Vee and some guy we never even got to meet.





Catching Jordan (Hundred Oaks, #1)Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This gets between 3.5 and 4 Stars.  It would have gotten more if Jordan, a girl who was so scared of receiving her first kiss, bailed on it, hadn't given up her V card after the second kiss.  That seemed totally out of character for her.  Other than that, I really enjoyed the story and the characters.

Book #103


Opal (Lux, #3)Opal by Jennifer L. Armentrout
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sweet baby aliens, this book is amazing!!  Love Katy.  Love Daemon.  Wish my prom had been that special.  This was the perfect mix of action and romance.  Can. Not. Wait. For. Origin.  Jennifer L. Armentrout is made of Awesomesauce!!

Book #102


Beautiful Disaster (Beautiful, #1)Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

3.5 Stars This is another book that's difficult to rate. While I enjoyed it, I didn't really care for the Protagonist.  She was kind of annoying and, well, dumb.  Really?  She couldn't tell that Travis wanted to be more than friends?  And the fact that she never told him how she felt at Thanksgiving made me want to kill her.  There were other little things that bothered me about the book.  Like how Shepley and America constantly spoke for Travis, and all the "huffing", "puffing" and "grabbing of faces with both hands".  I also think both of their backgrounds were left to be way to vague.  Abby was running away from this rough life but all I saw was that her father had a gambling problem.  And Travis became such a good fighter from getting beat by his dad and brothers, but when they call, he runs to play poker with them or cook them a Thanksgiving meal.  While it was entertaining after reading some of the reviews, I expected more from it.  I loved Travis though, for the most part.  I didn't like that once he got with Abby, he kind of lost his edge and just came as being possessive and a little crazy.



book #101


Silence (Hush, Hush, #3)Silence by Becca Fitzpatrick
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love this series!  So happy there is going to be a fourth book!  I will never get enough of Patch!


  Edited 11/30/12



Still love Patch.  Not so fond of the other characters anymore.  I really can't stand Nora's mom and Vee is a horrible best friend.

Book #100!!!


Crescendo (Hush, Hush, #2)Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I still have my crush on Patch.  I just wonder why the 2nd book in alot of these series have to rip my heart apart through most of them.

Edited:  Reread 11/27/2012:

I totally forgot about that cliffhanger of an ending!!  I read this book the first time almost two years ago to the exact date.  While I did enjoy it just as much,  Nora annoyed me a little bit more on this second reading than she did on the first.  I do like being able to read this series one right after the other though!





Book #99.5


Roar and Liv (Under the Never Sky, #0.5)Roar and Liv by Veronica Rossi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved this story!  Love this series!  And the first 2 chapters of Through the Ever Night? GAH!!!  It can't come out soon enough!! I love Peregrine and Aria!!




This book isn't showing up in my challenge count, so I guess I still have one more to go to his 100.

Still love Patch just as much the second time around!  But once again, our protagonist has the worst best friend.
