5-21-10 Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick - Fiction

3 - Another teen book with a great premise and mediocre character development that just doesn't quite have that "oomph" that makes it truly re-readable. Nora finds herself attracted to and frightened of Patch, her new biology partner. Once they are introduced strange things start happening. Nora doesn't know what or who to believe anymore and her best friend Vee isn't helping because she keeps pushing Nora toward another guy who seems perfect on the surface but who starts to creep Nora out. Little does Nora know that she has been targeted by a fallen angel who longs to be human and as a descendant of the Nephilim her death is the only thing that can make that happen. Fitzpatrick lays it on way too thick with the carnal attraction between Nora and Patch and forgets about creating a memorable and unpredictable plot. A so-so book in the middle of my good run.
