Hush Hush


"Treena, do you want to borrow a book?",this was Lucy's words when she arrived in our classroom after Christmas vacation.
"What kind of book?", I asked her.
"I don't know if you'd like it", she replied.
"May I see it?". I told her.
she pulled out a thick paper-backed book from her sling bag. I saw the title. It was Hush Hush.
I took it and read the summary at the back. I made no comment. But I think Lucy saw my expression and told me it's not her favorite book either.

As soon as I got home I read the first chapter of the book, it made no sense at all. But as I read through the chapters it was actually quite interesting. I'm not yet done with the book, but all I can say is that I'm starting to like it.

A background story of HUSH HUSH

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.
