Hush, Hush Series Review 4\5

SPOILER ALERT!!!
Hush, Hush was a great series full of unexpected villains and mysterious secrets. I really enjoyed this series; a captivating and thrilling story. One of the main reasons I loved this series was the character living inside it. My favourite character was Patch; he was this hot, mysterious, attractive and dangerous guy who falls in love with Nora Grey, the main character. Nora is a normal teenage girl; she is a little bit nerdy and is always too cautious, she also finds trouble opening up and trusting people.  However, as the series proceeds Nora unwraps herself, she becomes strong and brave.  Vee is also another character which made me laugh throughout this series. She is Nora’s best friend. She is sarcastic, comical and supportive, always thinking about shopping, boys and mostly food. Scott was also another really important character for me, he was one of Nora’s most faithful friend which came in the second book (Crescendo) he is a flirty, handsome and charming character, he is silly and is often mocking Nora, However he is very loyal and strong.

I also liked the fact that mystery remained to the very end, always keeping the captivating feeling for the reader.  I also loved that many of the events, outcomes and betrayals where unexpected, this made the story breathtaking; you could never know who or what was going to happen and that made the whole series very compelling.

The story itself isn’t my favourite, because all though I enjoyed the series some of the books were a waste of time, for me the third book (silence) was very boring, it was like reading the first book all over again. I was a little disappointed on the lovers, I think the author did not do a very god job on showing their strong affection, she had to make us feel the love of the characters. I personally think that if the lovers have such strong love for each other the writer must make us know and fell that their love is beyond reasoning. Even though the author showed the love of Nora and Patch on the way they thought, the decisions they took and the way they relayed and protected each other the couple did lack passion.

Some books where better than others, I personally loved Crescendo and Finale, I liked all of them but those two were the best. In Crescendo many secrets and mysteries were discovered, it also ended in a very spooky cliff hanger. In Finale there was a lot of action, betrayal, decision and strategy but also truth, loyalty, passion and loss. I cried so, so much in this book for so many reasons. The ending was absolutely marvelous, it was just amazing. I completely loved the way Rebecca Fitzpatrick finishes her series off; it was so heart touching but also very amusing, I think she made a great decision in finishing it with a phrase, a simple phrase I think I will never forget. I really do think that Rebecca Fitzpatrick succeeded on making this story worth living. It’s a must read!

 Yup, that's about it! Stay tuned more reviews coming up soon...

Querer, pero no poder.

No siempre “Querer es poder”, No siempre se hace lo que se quiere hacer. No siempre se tiene lo que se quiere tener. No siempre se siente lo que se quiere sentir. En ese maldito dilema, Querer quedarme. queriendo irme Sintiéndome culpable, Sintiéndome como un pendejo, Por aun sentir lo que siento. Quiero no sentir eso, pero no puedo. Quiero sentir eso, volver a eso, pero no puedo. Me lo prohíben. Me lo prohíbo. Estoy perdido. No se que putas hacer.

Half Human, Half Universe...

There is a universe within her, That no one ever dares to probe; With such deep misty corners, That consume you with her wanderlust. The shooting stars prowling inside her, Reflect her infinite hopes; That with her bold ambition, Persues without fall. She is mad and she is fire. Her soul burns with deep desires. She wants everything and settles for nothing; With her intense passion for exotic places and minds. A glitch within human specie she is; She scares people because she is whole all by herself, And with her blissful insanity, She has the power to conquer the world.

Personal Response to "Woman at point zero" by, El Saadawi

“ Slavery ”, “ humiliating ”, “ abusing ”, “ filthy ”, “ degrading ”, “ easy way out” . All these stigmas are used when describing a prostitute, yet it is all this that grants Firdaus utter freedom. This novel uncovers the naked truth of what it means to be a woman in an egyptian patriarchal society in the early 1980’s. In the world that Firdaus knows, women exist to serve men, women belong to men, women reside in the power of the hands of men. Female humans are objects, possessions, slaves and pleasure machines; in Firdaus society “all women are prostitutes of one kind or another” . She accepts the crude reality of what women are; arguing that “men force women to sell their bodies at a price, and that the lowest paid body is that of a wife”  Wives are maltreated prostitutes who trade their sexual service for regular subsistence, housing and support of their offspring. Prostitutes are autonomous prostitutes who trade their sexual service for freedom. In the end however, Firdaus co...
