Crescendo Better Than Hush Hush? Susie Thinks So**Spoiler Free**

Yeah I know this is turning into a book review kind of site but since nothing is really going on in the Twilight world we have to occupy ourselves and our readers with something else that entertains us and I can assure you that Aimee and I LOVE LOVE LOVE to read...believe me. Hopefully I can convince miss Aimee to do a quick Goodreads review post soon too. BTW this review is spoiler free because I know a couple of our followers are just starting on Hush Hush.

Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Hands down and I don't care if you agree with me or not...better than Hush Hush. Okay I know a few of you are fuming from that statement but let me give you some reasons why for me it was better than the first one.

We are already comfortable with the characters and I love to see character development. Boy howdy did this book have that! Not only are we introduced to one new character but the expansion of both Marcie and Rixon is amazingly written and the down spiraling issues between Patch and Nora is heartbreaking. Not to mention the development of Nora's new nickname I gave her...Crazy Bitch.

The plot thickens. If you thought the darkness unfolded in Hush Hush then you ain't seen nothing yet. Crescendo is full of intriguing plot twists heavy on the mystery with a dash of passion and flakes of comedy here and there (via Vee BFF)

So if you haven't read it yet then get your butt in gear because you are banking on one Hell of a read with an ending gasp worthy of a third installment.

Now that everything is Finally Unpacked...

Attention! Attention!

Things are finally starting to settle down to a strict routine in our separate homes! Aimee is settling into her apartment in Alabama(she got a job! I iz so proud!) and I'm finally fully unpacked and living with the stress filled duties of being a caretaker for my parents and grandma. But even with all the stress I have missed posting on our site. I have a couple of ideas lined up and I'm hoping to get back on a strict schedule of posting once maybe twice a week. I have a few reviews to post including the long overdue Remember Me and Eclipse posts(in which I still need to tell Aimee so she can pop over here with her opinion too) and a couple of opinion posts on our favorite RPattz movies due to come out as well. Along with that I've remained very active on our closest bloggy sisters sites doing guest posts and comments since at the moment it's all I've had time for :-)

I just signed up with OnePushyFox and Cutie to do a guest spot for the Beautiful Darkness book discussion later this year.

I'm currently knee deep in the ongoing Hush,Hush book discussion over at Super Secret Twilight Blog.

I also did a guest post over at the Bewitched Bookworms about a month back with OnePushyFox in which we did a Mystery Book Challenge. I'm really hoping to collaborate with the Bookworms again because I have tons of time to read now lol



And I've been keeping up and commenting regularly with my favorite True Blood blogger and loyal follower HG!! Season 3 is almost over :-(

We really want to thank all of our followers for sticking with us during this transition time. You have no idea how grateful we are and I'm hoping not so far into the future we can get a giveaway set up to show our appreciation! Don't forget to comment and say hello!

So GLAD to be BACK!!

Kickin It Off!! The Hush Hush Discussion on SSTB!!

As Alice would say, "It's Time." but this isn't about Twilight. I know right? A Twilight blog that isn't discussing it's purpose lol but we here at AnF aren't always about the Saga I mean jeez we do like other things. Between the two of us we read a shit ton of books(let's just say that Aimee's dad did a lot of eye rolling at the amount of boxes that were just books when we moved). Since we're on the topic of books, over the last year I have been introduced to some amazing new authors and series that I die and swoon over and one of these particular texts is Hush, Hush. I was introduced to the Becca Fitzpatrick awesomeness by Cutie and KG who exclaimed that I must read this book, that I would LOVE this book and ya know what? I DID! This book is everything an entertaining novel should be and more.





The discussion officially kicked off today and to commemorate it we all got together and shared with the world who we envision as our Patch. If you don't know who Patch is then I highly suggest you get your hands on Hush, Hush and join in on the discussion!

We all had our own varieties of Patch. From the original model that portrays him on the book cover to an anime character that embodies his personality. Who's my Patch you may ask?

Well......

created by Fragile Little Human and Cutie

I can't help it. He screams Patch to me and every time I read the book he is who I envision.


Hop on over to Super Secret Twilight Blog and check out all the other Patch choices and join in on our book discussion.

If you've read the book before then I know you have an opinion...voice it! And if you haven't then we'll be doing the discussion weekly by chapters and you can read along with us and hear our opinions. It's a win/win situation and believe me when I tell you Patch and Becca Fitzpatrick's world is something you must experience!

Win an Author Signed Copy of Hush Hush!

If you're in the know of the literary world, then you should be very aware of the amazing novel Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick. She has conquered the hearts of fans all over with her riveting tale of mystery, danger, and passion.

As Told By The Publisher....

For Nora Grey, romance was not part of the plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how much her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch came along.With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Nora is drawn to him against her better judgment.But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure who to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is, and to know more about her than her closest friends. She can't decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.For Nora is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those that have fallen - and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost her life.

I was first introduced to this book by reccomendation of One Pushy Fox. As soon as I read her synopsis I went out the next day and snatched up. To Foxy: babe you nailed this one on the head! Hush Hush was something, new, exciting, and different. Something I had never read before. The unique characters, the mysterious plot, and the eerie twists sucked me in and made me fall in love as I soaked up each page.

And now YOU can win a copy of Hush Hush signed by the talented Becca Fitzpatrick! Just go over to Ramblings of a Wannabe Scribe and get in on your chance to have a little bit of Patch for yourself.
