Bad news: Only one book for me this week.. *sad puppy dog face*

Good news: I don't have to go drive and buy books at the store because... I got a Kindle~ *insert squeals and giggles here* Thank you, Mommy and Daddy, for the lovely graduation present ♥ Even though I got my Kindle around in the summer... hehe. These good news are kind of late.. However, that doesn't mean I'm going to stop reading paperbacks and hardcovers~

Anyways, the book I bought this week is...


CRESCENDO by Becca Fitzpatrick (I just died when I finally bought this)

The sequel to the New York Times Best selling phenomenon, Hush, Hush! Nora should have know her life was far from perfect. Despite starting a relationship with her guardian angel, Patch (who, title aside, can be described anything but angelic), and surviving an attempt on her life, things are not looking up. Patch is starting to pull away and Nora can't figure out if it's for her best interest or if his interest has shifted to her arch-enemy Marcie Millar. Not to mention that Nora is haunted by images of her father and she becomes obsessed with finding out what really happened to him that night he left for Portland and never came home. The farther Nora delves into the mystery of her father's death, the more she comes to question if her Nephilim blood line has something to do with it as well as why she seems to be in danger more than the average girl. Since Patch isn't answering her questions and seems to be standing in her way, she has to start finding the answers on her own. Relying too heavily on the fact that she has a guardian angel puts Nora at risk again and again. But can she really count on Patch or is he hiding secrets darker than she can even imagine?

  1. I wasn't the biggest fan of Hush, Hush, but I know a ton of people loved it and have also raved about the sequel. I hope you enjoy it!! I think this series has awesome covers.

    And woohoo for the Kindle. I'm kinda jealous, haha.

    Also, welcome to book blogging! I'm a new follower.

  2. Crescendo is great, I hope you enjoy it! The Hush, Hush series is one of my favourites at the moment. It's just a shame we have to wait so long for the next book to be released!

    Have an amazing week! :D
