Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Finale (Hush, Hush, #4) in Books

Jan 6, 2021

I didn't enjoy this as much as the other three. Nora's whiney-ness just got to me in this and her being in charge of a Nephilim army when she's dating a fallen angel just seemed a little strange.
 
A lot of questions were answered in this in regards to just about everything and if I'm honest I skipped over description looking for the conversational parts because it seemed to go on for a long time, being dragged out.
 
I liked Dante. I never realised how wrong I could be about a character until this book. I wont spoil it but Jeez.
 
It was a good ending but I kind of think I'd lost interest in the series by the end.

Kudos

I am a true book nerd, *I will read anything and everything - except zombies. Currently I live in a canyon, in a cabin in Central Oregon, USA. My fur babies are a Shakespeare and Archer. History and things that go bump in the night thrill me.

A great read

This was an amazing book, I had heard people talking about it and thought I'd give it a go, and I'm so glad I did, a mysterious and dark story full of twists and turns, with a shock ending, I couldnt put it down

Book Favorite

"A surreal world of characters trapped in a house, the book felt more like a dream than a story. I loved it because it was so different from anything else I ever read. I was never particularly interested in Opera, but this story swept me away."

Ray Winstone recommended Once Upon a Time in America (1984) in Movies (curated)

"Another movie is Once Upon a Time In America, which is a bit of genius film-making, I think. That’s a film I can watch all night long. And I think it is four hours long, or something like that. It’s just a wonderful film to watch."

"A few years ago when I was teaching a course at Berkeley I reread A Farewell to Arms and fell right back into those sentences. I mean they’re perfect sentences. Very direct sentences, smooth rivers, clear water over granite, no sinkholes"

Is there a way to get notifications to Orbs I am a part of when someone posts something? I feel sad sometimes when I miss stuff and don't see until days later.
