Finale by Becca Fitzpatrick Review

Finale by Becca Fitzpatrick
(Hush, Hush, #4)
Release Date: October 23, 2012
Publisher: Simon & Schuster; 454 pages

Will love conquer all?

Nora and Patch thought their troubles were behind them. Hank is gone and they should be able to put his ugly vendetta to rest. But in Hank's absence, Nora has become the unwitting head of the Nephilim and must finish what Hank began. Which ultimately means destroying the fallen angels - destroying Patch.

Nora will never let that happen, so she and Patch make a plan: lead everyone to believe they have broken up, and work the system from the inside. Nora will convince the Nephilim that they are making a mistake in fighting the fallen angels, and Patch will find out everything he can from the opposing side. They will end this war before it can even begin.

But the best-laid plans often go awry. Nora is put through the paces in her new role and finds herself drawn to an addictive power she never anticipated.

As the battle lines are drawn, Nora and Patch must confront the differences that have always been between them and either choose to ignore them or let them destroy the love they have always fought for.

Author Event: Meeting Becca Fitzpatrick, Author of The Hush, Hush Series

Jessica and I drove to Wellesley, Massachusetts for Becca Fitpatrick's signing for the Silence tour. I live in New Jersey, so Massachusetts is about 4 hours away from me. Jessica lives in Maryland which is a whopping 7 hour drive. Luckily for me, since I do not drive, Jessica was willing to drive us to the signing. We both went back and forth trying to decide what would be the easiest way to get to the signing. After discussion Jessica chose to drive us, instead of taking public transportation. After spending the night in Staten Island, New York, so Jessica wouldn't have to drive overnight to get us to the signing on time we headed to Wellesley.

Now why would we drive that far for a book signing? The Massachusetts stop was the only East Coast stop for the Silence tour, and since Jessica and I had not met Becca before we both wanted to go. Plus we both are huge fans of the Hush, Hush series. Silence had come out about a week and a half before the Wellesley signing so I hadn't finished reading the book yet. Jessica is a super fast reader so of course she already finished the book. Majority of the ride I tried to finish reading the book, and even though it is a very good book (Jessica and I both agree it's the best in the series so far) I couldn't finish it.

Giveaway: Hush, Hush SIGNED by Becca Fitzpatrick!

I drove up to Boston, Massachusetts yesterday to meet the amazing Becca Fitzpatrick, the author of the Hush, Hush series! It was completely worth the nearly 8 hour drive :) While I was there, I made sure to get a few things signed for giveaways like a paperback copy of Hush, Hush.
