The end of Hush Hush was mildly interesting, plus I already owned Crescendo, so I figured I may as well read it. That was not an intelligent decision. 
 As I read, I am just listing things that bug me . . . this may be a very long list: 
 1)	What is with the mother in this series? One minute she is freaking out because Nora was 4 minutes past curfew, the next day she doesn't care that her daughter literally goes out onto the road and sticks her thumb out to hitch a ride . . . guess what, hanging out in the driveway with your boyfriend is less dangerous than trying to hitch a ride with strangers. This is seriously one of the worst written characters I've ever seen. 
 2)	Seriously, after all the crap in the last book, you are breaking up with Patch because he cannot feel physical sensations . . . something you already knew about. Well, that is just dumb. Plus, yes he won't tell you why he was at Marcie's place, but how about giving the guy, that you supposedly love, some benefit of the doubt? 
 3)	 Nora - after you break up with a guy, believe it or not, he is under no obligation to call you and beg you for forgiveness. 
 4)	Vee is still the worst friend in the history of friends right now. 
 5)	Why, after making a big deal about how you don't feel comfortable being alone with Scott, during the day, would you go out with him to a seedy pool bar?!?! 
 6)	I honestly didn't think it was possible, but I now kind of feel bad for Patch, Nora is just a sucky person right now. 
 7)	Nora's mom - could you be any more useless? 
 8)	Nora is supposed to be your quintessential "good girl" - since when does any 'good girl' believe that a teenager's inalienable rights include the right to get out and let loose with in an 18 and over only setting? 
 9)	Why steal a diary, then refuse to read it on moral grounds, and then admit to stealing the diary? I don't understand, plus this whole stupid plotline didn't even contribute to whatever the heck the plot in this book is actually supposed to be. 
 10)	Come to think of it, nothing that we have wasted an inordinate amount of pages on really seems to be moving this plot forward - what was the point in Nora's frantic job search only to have her go to work one time? 
 11)	Why would angels build a dilapidated theme park? 
 12)	Is anyone surprised by who the bad guy is? 
 13) Got to love how the police officer (apparently the only one on the force) has had a complete personality makeover . . . guess the original one didn't work out and it was too much trouble to bother writing in someone new, why not just have characters that are apparently bi-polar, yup that makes so much more sense! 
 14) Seriously, worst mother ever, plus, Nora then worries her Mom by saying she got shot and promptly runs off with Patch . . . are we supposed to forget that her mother is supposed to be frantically driving home to see her? 
 15)	Thank goodness this is over!! 
 This is honestly one of the worst series I have ever read, I don't have the third book and I am 100% not continuing on with this series. I don't get it, I feel bad for Patch because of all of the immortal loves out there he got stuck with a psycho crazy person whose actions make no sense whatever. Plus the book is not really all that well written.
