Title: Hush Hush
By: Becca Fitzpatrick
Reading Level: Young Adult

Book Description from Author’s Website:
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.
Talk about an awesome book. I finished this book in a little over one day. This is a non stop action adventure wrapped up in a love story. They book has been quite the rave for the past few months on the blog circuit, and it is official Becca Fitzpatrick overcome all of my expectations for this book. This is one of the few books that are perfect from beginning to end. Everything about this book is memorable, and will leave you craving more long past the last page. I am excited to announce that I read on the Fitzpatricks webpage there will be a second book called Crescendo with an expected release date scheduled for Fall of 2010. So here is to another long wait anticipating another breath taking novel.
So exciting I had Christmas in November last night. When I came home from work I had three packages in the mail.
The Awesome Midnight Moon Cafe sent me an awesome collection of bookmarks, postcards, magnets, book and a card. I am not entirely sure why I received all of this. The only think I can think is that it was from a contest that I entered, but I didn’t even win that contest. This is amazing. I need more friends like this. Hee Hee.
Secondly, I reviewed Jessica Verday’s The Hollow a while back, and in the mail today I had this collection of a card, stickers, and bookmark. I then found that one of my packages was a book, more stickers, and perfumes from Verday. I was so excited I could hardly handle it. I have the perfumes in my curio cabinet for everyone to see, and they actually smell pretty darn good too.
If you have not read my review for The Hollow check it out here.
I can not believe they sent me all of this. I am so looking forward to her second book. I can only hope that they will allow me the opportunity to review it.
Thirdly, I recieved a book that I am very anxious to start reading. Tenaya Jayne gave me the wonderful opportunity to review her new book called Blue Aspen.
Book Description:
When seventeen-year-old Dulcee Elders' mother embarks on a road trip from their home in California, Dulcee knows something odd is about to happen. Her suspicions are confirmed when they arrive at Uncle Jack's house outside of Durango, Colorado. Without another word, Dulcee's mother is gone, and Dulcee faces life with her reclusive and wealthy uncle in a looming rural mansion.
Dulcee has suffered from insomnia ever since her father died more than ten years ago. But once at home at Uncle Jack's, inexplicably Dulcee now can sleep; sleep brings not only strange and intricate dreams, but a dream lover. For now, Vincent Sands is only the silhouette of a man, but when Uncle Jack leaves town for business, Dulcee's dream world and reality collide. Once she is alone, the silhouette is no longer content to remain only in her dreams.
When Dulcee is asleep, Vincent can give her anything she wants, even the ability to talk to her dead father. Inevitably, Vincent must leave when Uncle Jack returns. Dulcee experiences the high price of loving Vincent-an addiction rivaling that of any hard-core drug. Desperate to bridge the gap between them, Dulcee faces a crucial decision that carries irreversible consequences.
So here is to all the wonderful people that send me all of this awesome stuff.
You are Awesome!!!!!

Reading Guide to accompany Inheritance Series
BookWhisperer Rating:
Book Synopsis:
From the creators of the bestselling books Dragonology, Egyptology, Piratelogy, and others, this is a never-before-seen glimpse into the world of Christopher Paolini’s Inheritance cycle.
Alagaësia comes alive in a lush and detailed look at an unforgettable magical land. From elves, dwarves, Urgals, humans, and dragons, to the natural landscape and the magic it contains, Eragon himself offers the reader an unsurpassed tour.
This is the coolest book that I have recieved. I have not even started to read The Inheritance Series, but I had to read through this guide after I recieved it. My entire family loves this book, and they don’t even read….. My daughter loves all of the cards and prop letters that are in the book. This book reads like you are a Dragon Heart and you are learning the heritage. Page has cool additions like fuzzy patches that are supposed to be the fur of the Feldunost, and glitter patch that is supposed to be the look of a dragons wing. This book is just so incredible and cool that you can not put it down. This would make an awesome christmas gift for someone that follows the Inheritance Series.
