Book Review: Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick

Genre: Young Adult Fiction (Fantasy/Paranormal Romance)

The Blurb:

Nora Grey's life is still far from perfect. Surviving an attempt on her life wasn't pleasant, but at least she got a guardian angel out of it: a mysterious, magnetic, gorgeous guardian angel. But, despite his role in her life, Patch has been acting anything but angelic. He's more elusive than ever and even worse, he's started spending time with Nora's arch-enemy, Marcie Millar.

Nora would have hardly noticed Scott Parnell, an old family friend who has moved back to town, if Patch hadnt been acting so distant. Even with Scott's totally infuriating attitude Nora finds herself drawn to him - despite her lingering feeling that he's hiding something.

Haunted by images of her murdered father, and questioning whether her nephilim bloodline has anything to do with his death, Nora puts herself increasingly in dangerous situations as she desperately searches for answers. But maybe some things are better left buried, because the truth could destroy everything - and everyone - she trusts

My Review:

I didn't enjoy Crescendo as much as Hush, Hush, but I still liked it. Some parts more than others. The characters bring out some negative emotions throughout the book. Patch made me angry and frustrated, and there were times when I wanted to slap Nora around a bit, but there were also twists when it came to some of the other characters to keep things interesting. I felt like the beginning dragged somewhat. This was the classic sequel, but the last quarter of the book made it well worth the read and really got me anxious to know what happens next. I'm looking forward to reading Silence.
