When Claire is ordered to repair the systems that protect Morganville, it's not just cutting into her study time, it's a life-threatening problem. If there's one thing this vampire-infested town is serious about, it's security. But achieving the impossible only brings a whole new set of problems, and the upgrades have unexpected consequences: people inside the town are slowly beginning to forget who they are, even the vampires. Soon, the town's little memory problem has turned into a full-on epidemic. Now Claire needs to figure out a way to pull the plug on her experiment - before she f orgets how to save Morganville...
BEWARE THERE'S SPOILERS!
My Thoughts
OMG! All I can say was that this book is a BIG HIT! I swear down, it is a awesome book I loved it! Its full of action, romance, suspense- everything.
I loved the starting of the book. Especially because Claire thought a guy was hot other than Shane and Micheal. It just seemed so much nicer. But I stick with the fact that Shane and Claire are made for each other.
Claire killed a Vampire in self defence as like always there was a brawl. Humans get killed all the time and they don't make a big deal out of it. But,Amelia is so mean! I cannot believe she kept Claire awake for such a long time as punishment to put up the town barriers back up again. Blah Blah Blah. At least she wasn't in that other guys place boy has he done trouble. Everyone is losing their memories (even vampires) because the machine is malfunctioning. Micheal acted as if he didn't know anyone even Eve and Shane.
OMG! Shane was the worst. He completely didn't know Claire at all! Like she was a nobody. It was so sad. He thought that they just hooked up. But it was nice seeing Claire's and Shane's romance build up again from the very beginning. LOL! Even Micheal and Eve... they were so cute.
What I really hated was the agony Shane felt realising his mum and sister died also how they died and that his Dad was turned into a Vampire.
I was dieing! I just have to say it Frank Collins dies! I know you might think hes a baddy but when your read this book you see another caring person who sacrificed himself for the town. Shane was heart broken. There was this one line which he said which really hit me. "it's too late for me to really love him now. That's what hurts."
OMG I CRIED! real actual tears. This was so sad for Shane. I mean seriously, those words just touched my heart. I love Shane. He's suffering so much. ):
Rachel Caine's cliffhanger are simply the best you know why? Myrin knows how to restore the Town's boundaries (they got destroyed in the fight)he tells Claire. Myrin always wanted to put a brain as the brain will always do the job. Care to guess who's brain he used? Too big a secret to give away.
Like I said. This a definite MUST READ!
My very first Waiting on Wednesday
Call me mad, but I wanted to make my first Waiting on Wednesday special. So, I decided to do a double post edition with both book synopsis's on the House of Night series. One is a book the other is a book edition. I totally love the Cover to the first book. Don't you?
TemptedBook #6 in the House of Night series
Paperback, 336 pages
Publish Date: October 7th 2010
Publisher: ATOM
Zoey needs a break after some serious excitement. Sadly, the House of Night school for vampyres doesn't feature breaks on its curriculum - even for a High Priestess in training and her gang. Plus juggling three guys is no stress reliever, especially when one is a sexy Warrior so into protecting Zoey that he's sensing her emotions. Wider stresses lurk too, and the dark force in Tulsa's tunnels is spreading. Could Stevie Rae be responsible for more than a group of misfit fledglings? And Aphrodite's visions warn Zoey to stay away from the immortal Kalona and his dark allure - but they also show that only Zoey can stop him. She's not exactly keen to meet up, but if Zoey doesn't go to Kalona he'll exact a fiery vengeance on those closest to her. She just has to find the courage to do what's necessary, or everything that's important to her will be destroyed.

Final 'Hush Hush' Trilogy Release Date Out!
SIMON and SCHUSTER BOOKS FOR YOUNG READERS TO PUBLISH FINAL BOOK OF THE HUSH, HUSH TRILOGY IN 2011—BY NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR BECCA FITZPATRICKNEW YORK, October 19, 2010 – Simon and Schuster Books for Young Readers announced today that it will be publishing Tempest, the third and final book in Becca Fitzpatrick’s New York Times bestselling Hush, Hush trilogy. Tempest will have an on-sale date of Tuesday, October 18, 2011, with a first printing of 250,000 copies, and it will be supported by a major marketing campaign and national author tour.
The Hush, Hush series has captivated readers with the story of Nora Grey, her friend Vee, and a mysterious fallen archangel named Patch. In the gripping conclusion of the trilogy, Nora finds that as things start to unravel around her, she is more drawn to the enigmatic Patch. She soon discovers that the answers lie closer to home than she realized, and it is time for her to take control of her destiny once and for all.
Becca Fitzpatrick says, “Hush, Hush was my very first book, and it’s so thrilling to see it embraced by so many readers. It’s been a truly life changing experience. Patch and Nora’s story isn’t half told until Tempest, and I hope readers will find it the most enticing book yet.”
Executive editor Emily Meehan adds, “Becca Fitzpatrick is an amazing storyteller, so my excitement to bring readers the third and final Hush, Hush book goes almost beyond words. Almost! Becca’s characters are swoony, her plots are twisted, and she likes to weave in a good mystery while she’s at it. Tempest will be no exception.”
Becca Fitzpatrick grew up reading Nancy Drew and Trixie Belden with a flashlight under the covers. She graduated college with a degree in health, which she promptly abandoned for storytelling. When not writing, she's most likely prowling sale racks for reject shoes, running, or watching crime dramas on TV. Hush, Hushwas her first novel. She lives in Colorado.

UPDATE
The Hush Hush series are not a triology anymore. Tempest has been renamed to Silence. The title to Book 4 has been named as Finale!
