Gisbelle | 25787 comments This is the battle between Fallen (Fallen, #1) by Lauren Kate and Hush, Hush (Hush, Hush, #1) by Becca Fitzpatrick

Fallen: 3
Hush, Hush: 5


message 2: by kirstin ✿ (new)

kirstin ✿ (shoutohdoroki) Hi. So, I personally think that Hush, Hush is better than Fallen. Anyone agree with me?

Trisha | 30284 comments Nope, I didn't like Hush, Hush at all.

My vote: Fallen


message 5: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Only read Hush, Hush :) I'll give you the answer after I finish Fallen, which I might read next week since I'm pretty booked this week.

Nice. I don't like Fallen, I didn't even have the chance to finish it. But who knows? If I ran out of books to read, I might continue it.

I personally think that Hush, Hush is better: characters, plot, mythology. I know both books are not the best in their genre. A lot of my friends didn't like it. Some even think they're bad.

It's just that Fallen didn't draw me in as much as Hush, Hush did. And I didn't like Fallen's pacing.


message 8: by Purvika (new)

Purvika (violetstygian) aahh... Fallen..
i loved it.. daniel and luce.. their love story.. drew me in... :)... even the side characters felt important... and ending was awesome... infact if i think deeply the ending of Fallen is far Better than HUSH HUSH

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I loved Hush Hush but haven't read Fallen yet.


message 10: by Purvika (new)

Purvika (violetstygian) I recommend it ... If you are into reincarnation... Eternal love story kind... :D


message 11: by Beatrice (new)

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) I'm going to read Fallen.
but I love Patch. :) so Hush Hush for me.


Shuhan [On Leave] (Inyourclosetinyourhead) I am one tiny weeny millimeter from Love for Hush Hush.

Same with Fallen!


Shuhan [On Leave] (Inyourclosetinyourhead) But Torment and Passion werent good. Fallen, Rapture and Fallen in love were good.


message 14: by Jessica (new)

Jessica (jessicalcozzi) I read Fallen, and I wasn't that big of a fan. The ending of the book struck me as odd.


Shuhan [On Leave] (Inyourclosetinyourhead) I know, I didn't like it when Daniel became all softy softy.


message 16: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 5 comments I loved them both but will have to pick Fallen.


message 17: by Amasa (new)

Amasa | 7 comments I agree i think both are great .But i love Fallen.Everything about it keep me from not wanting to put it down !:)

Hi, Kristin. I TOTALLY agree with you. I read Hush, Hush literally in two days. I think it was amazing. The second, third and fourth book are amazing as well. I highly recommend them (:


message 19: by Fernanda (new)

Fernanda García | 25 comments Fallen is more slow-paced than Hush,Hush. I really liked Hush, Hush better because in Fallen Daniel was playing hard to get at first and then he became all touchy-feely. On the other hand, Patch is amazingly deep, dark and is playing hard to get even when he's with Nora. And I love his cocky, presumptuos self (: Anyone agree?


message 20: by Katherine (new)

Katherine | 2741 comments Hush was better then Fallen, don't get me wrong, but I wasn't totally head over heels in love with both books :(


message 21: by kirstin ✿ (new)

kirstin ✿ (shoutohdoroki) Fallen was boring, IMO. Hush, Hush has more suspense. And Patch > Daniel and Nora > Luce. Plus, I really loved Patch's fierce charisma and dangerously protective of Nora.


message 22: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments I am reading Fallen now. (view spoiler)

Yess! (view spoiler)


message 24: by Haley (new)

Haley | 22 comments I have only read Fallen, i liked it and all but for a while now i've been wanting to read Hush,Hush because it seems like a good book. I can see it being better than Fallen because the ending just killed me.

I have only read book 1 of these two series :)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments My vote is for Hush, Hush :)

Yeah, when he did that I actually pictured some middle-graded kid who wanted to pull prank at random newcomers. I don't know, lol.


message 29: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments lol... nice imagine :) What a douche! I tried to find a reason to like him, but nothing came up. I'll read book 2, though. But not till I finish Hush Hush series first :)


message 30: by kirstin ✿ (new)

kirstin ✿ (shoutohdoroki) Same here! Daniel was too dull for my liking. I liked Patch more :) And I'll be reading Crescendo by the end of the month. Have you read it already?


message 31: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Not yet :( Want to read it together? :D
