Summary:

Nora Grayness tin can't recall the past five months of her life. Afterward the initial daze of waking up in a cemetery and being told that she has been missing for weeks – with no one knowing where she was or who she was with – she tried to go her life back on rail. Go to school, hang out with her best friend, Vee, and contrivance mom'due south creepy new boyfriend. But at that place is this phonation in the back of her head, an idea that she can about accomplish out and touch. Visions of angel wings and unearthly creatures that have zero to do with the life she knows. And this unshakable feeling that a part of her is missing. Then Nora crosses paths with a sexy stranger, whom she feels a mesmerizing connection to. He seems to hold all the answers…and her center. Every infinitesimal she spends with him grows more and more intense until she realizes she could be falling in honey. Again.

My Thoughts:

We start the tertiary book of the Hush, Hush saga by finding Nora waking upwardly in a middle of a cemetery. She has no recollection of the past 3 months or so. She then learns that she's been kidnapped last June just she couldn't retrieve anything starting from the month of April–which is a bit odd. Why would she non recollect anything before her disappearance even happened?

Equally Nora struggles to go her life back to normal, she starts to go involved with Nephilims and fallen angels once more. She has no idea what they actually are due to her "amnesia" but later on the story, she gets fragments of informations about them and slowly puts the pieces together.

Oh, and did I mention that Nora'south female parent is dating Hank Millar? What a shocker! (kidding, non really). And for some reasons, she isvery in dearest with him.

At this bespeak, I could say that Silence is manner better than Hush, Hush and Crescendo. Character evolution wise, I personally think that Nora has been much stronger, determined and unshakable now. As for Patch, I love how he's very sure of his choices at present. Also, I retrieve that this is the kickoff time he's been utterly honest and romantic, only notwithstanding got the bad-boy vibe going on. Some other character that I really enjoyed seeing on this book was Scott. I beloved the whole 180 turn on his character.

Forth the character development is of course the world edifice. On this book, we learn more to the Nephilim / fallen angel / archangel world. I wouldn't get into details for I don't want to spoil them for you.

Silence'due south pacing was a tad slow at the starting time. It could be a little frustrating to the other readers considering Nora couldn't retrieve some of the things that we readers could call back….And I know what you're thinking right now. You're probably thinking that this volume volition exist similar a retelling of the whole things that has happened on the previous books– coming together Patch, knowing his real identity, the connection between them two, and Nora's family. Well, let me just tell y'all that it's not. Writing and publishing this volume would be pointless if nosotros're just going to get dorsum to square one, right?

All the same again, the book ends on a cliffhanger. Information technology's not as tense as Crescendo'south ending merely it'due south still a something to get you excited for the last book,Finale. I've got an idea where the story'southward going and I honey it. I'm already on Chapter ix of Finale equally I'm writing this and I'm very glad to say that the plot just gets more and more interesting.

Overall, I liked Silence the all-time. Information technology was entertaining for the most part.

I rated this volume four/5 stars.

Here are some of my favorite quotes from the book:

"Yous're mine, Angel. And I'k yours. Cipher tin can modify it."

"Ignorance was the lowest form of humiliation and suffering."

"Sometimes the best offense is a adept defense."

"Had existence near him ever felt like playing with fire? Warm and bright, and intense and dangerous?"

"How did you lot get in?"

"I movement in mysterious means."

"God moves in mysterious ways. You motility similar lightning–here one moment, gone the next."
