Who liked Hush, Hush?

MrsJenE · July 2014

I seriously need to know.

pinkybooklover09 · July 2014

Is this one of the YA paranormals that came during the Twilight era? I may have read it but all those front covers have melded into the same thing in my mind.

ETA: I just remembered. And no. Because the premise sounded incredibly wack at the time. From the sound of it, I was right in my decision.

Also, yes I realize I just said wack. And no, it isn't 1993.

I was going to follow this up with a wack gif. Note to self: Never google images of wack while at work.

It was meh.

AshleyT121 · July 2014

I remember liking it, but then I don't ever remember finishing the series, so I couldn't have liked it that much. I read it in my post-Twilight haze.

ETA: Yup. Gave it 4 stars on GR in 2009, but gave the second book 1 star.

EliStar · July 2014

No, and I am immensely pleased with myself for sticking with that decision.

Hoycie · July 2014

I'm mildly curious what has you and @84lauren handling pitchforks & torches with this book.

Whatever, you have super FOMO that you didn't also get to experience the horror.

Word.

One of my favorite book bloggers has these labels for it on GR. That pretty much sealed the deal.

1 of 5 stars

NOPE.

I had quite the list of things I didn't like about it. I don't remember most of them now. But NOPE.

It legit took me a long time to even get over it. I am not much of a critic usually, but I could not even handle how many things were SO. VERY. WRONG. with this book.

And now that I'm lost in a new series and enjoying books again, @MrsJenE has to go and bring it up...

I haven't been able to read a book since I finished Hush, Hush. I have book hangover, but not in a good way.

I remember reading it and being like, wha?? My GR review tells me that I basically hated all the characters, there was too much whining and not enough back story.

*puts this book on my post-it and scratches it off my to read list*

nocturnalintimacy · July 2014

Oh no! I JUST bought this earlier this week (it was a $1.99 kindle deal) because SO MANY OF YOU had it as 4 stars on Goodreads.

RiverPlate · July 2014

I liked it and finished the series. There have been so many series books published since then that just blow it out of the water.

Right?!? I was really excited to read this, I knew it wouldn't be a literary masterpiece but I figured it was enjoyable. I felt like NBC let me down for the first time EVER.

@MrsJenE - It is literally the Boone's Farm of books.

SnShne322 · July 2014

That's a fantastic analogy.

@MrsJenE

I read it this weekend. I can't even. I'm so frustrated that I want to yell at someone.

This is the best description of this book ever.
