I read this book as I had heard many great things about it but boy was I wrong. This book is replete with abusive relationships and toxic characters. The book glorifies cheating and other such negative things that must never be part of any relationship. The male protagonist is a creep and a manipulative jerk which Hoover argues is okay as long as he is handsome. Colleen Hoover attempts to demonstrate through this book that a person’s physical appearance should not be used to gauge their personalities. The main characters though literally fall in love and develop an instant connection on the first interaction as they are physically attracted to each other. I am sorry but no sane adult will like this book as it blatantly romanticizes stalking, cheating, and rape.
I really must stop reading reviews! All the 5-star ratings made it seem like this was a very safe choice. But I could not stand this book. Seemed like it was written for adolescents. Two 18-year-olds engaging in heavy make-out sessions for like 80% of the book is not my idea of an interesting read! The repetition was maddening and the writing was as juvenile as the characters.
(PureTextuality.com)I am pretty new to the phenomenon that is Colleen Hoover. I had heard all about her books and finally read one, Maybe Someday, and realized just how good of a writer she is. So when Lexxie at Unconventional Book Views reviewed November 9 recently, I immediately bought and read it. As in, I could literally not put it down.It’s Fallon’s last day in California, as she is moving to New York. She’s out to lunch with her arrogant actor father and having a rough time of it. Fallon’s face and left side were burned in a fire a couple of years before while she was staying with her dad. Her father tries to convince her that she can no longer have a career as an actor and even brings up the fact that she no longer even dates. Cringe worthy! When Ben steps in and pretends to be her boyfriend in order to get her father to lay off her, it begins an odyssey for both Fallon and Ben.Both characters are eighteen and Ben is a college student/writer. Fallon had starred on a television show, but lost the job after the fire. November 9 is now, both the anniversary of the fire, and of their meeting. They spend the day together and each realizes that they have found someone special. They agree to meet on each November 9, until they are twenty three. Twenty three because that’s the age her mother thinks most people know what they want in life. So they agree to a pact-no phone calls, no numbers, no social media,or emails exchanged. Nothing but waiting for the next year.The premise was different, and although there are similar book/movies out there, this one was a completely different type of story.Of course, I haven’t even delved into half of what happens in this read. Things aren’t always as they seem and sometimes people harbor huge secrets-the kind of secrets that are life changing. Sometimes, people can be completely wrong in their estimation of another person and that is explored as well. The book jumps in time from one November 9th, to the next.Fallon and Ben were fascinating characters. Both have flaws and both have things that cause them angst.They are real in their feelings for each other, but as in life, five years can bring many changes and does for both.The reader is witness to all the changes in both of their lives, and to the deepening of their feelings for each other. What maddened me at times was that they go so long without being able to call or contact each other-relying on others to do so when needed and only on November 9th. In that respect, it was kind of unbelievable for me and had me practically yelling at my book at times.Hoover’s writing is nothing short of amazing as can be expected from a #1 New York Times bestselling author. If you enjoy having all the “feels” in a read, this one definitely measures up, and in a big way.There’s a beautiful romance here, but the reader has to go through some major turmoil at times to get to the end. I think I loved every minute of the journey.Highly recommended adult read.
Amazing
How?! How does Colleen do it?! Time and time again she writes these unbelievable stories that are so farfetched as to be realistic! She drags you in. She builds you up. Then, she tears it all apart. She breaks your heart. She makes you love, trust and then makes you fall. You fall so hard you break apart. You cry. You ugly cry. You hurt. Whatever you expect, she takes you in a completely different, unexpected direction that tears you up into little, tiny, broken pieces. I can never read her books when they are first released. I have to wait. Wait until I am emotionally ready because I do not look forward to the heartbreak I will soon feel when I delve in to the cover and read the first words. She always grabs you from the very first sentence, the first paragraph, the first page and then she doesn’t let you go. There is a rhythm to her stories. A wave of emotion you must ride only to come out wondering what the heck she was thinking. How could she write something so intense? Especially when she swears she does not have all the feels?! How?!The story of Fallon and Benton is no exception. It starts off as crazy as all the other stories. You fall in love with the characters, you watch them grow, then Colleen takes them to a place you did not foresee and breaks your heart in all the worst and best ways. That is all I can say without giving anything away.
Fallen and Ben meet on November 9th, the night she is moving to New York. They have an instant connection and make a pact to meet on November 9th for the next 5 years with no other contact…I really liked the concept of this book and I don’t want to give to much of the plot away. I got hooked from the start and got through it so quick, I love Colleens writing.I love both characters they were witty and tensor with each other but also helping each other grow as people and your rooting for them from the beginning. It is insta love which is referenced in the book but it didn’t annoy me as much as it normally does…Things obviously don’t go smoothly and there is a couple of decisions Ben makes which I wasn’t a massive fan off. and the plot twist I didn’t expect and I felt it did lesson them as a couple. Other then that I overall did really enjoy this book.
Once again I was blown away by this authors words. In the early part of this story it felt a lot like self pity and deprecation and I felt ugh! no! I can’t continue if its going to be the woe is me but then it turned around revealing a massive plot twist then my heart broke into a million pieces and I grabbed the tissues.I love how this author suddenly just hits you out of left field with a solid ball of emotion. The interconnected way these two characters lives have crossed over year after year is true romance. Very much a slow burn.What I further love about this authors stories is the uniqueness, you never know where its going to go but you know at some point you are going to be awash with emotions. Love books with all the feels!
I know with my heart and soul after reading this that i will never read a book about insta love again for as long as i live! Boy oh boy was this book hard to read. It’s a shame because I’ve heard so many good things about Colleen hoover novels and I’m sure her other books are great because i do love her writing style. I think i just picked up the wrong book to start with. I don’t even want to go into the details of the story but even though it was written well, i can’t say i warmed to the characters at all. Fallon was great, the way she handled herself but i can’t say the same about Ben. At first i loved his character but after the halfway point he just sounded controlling and everytime he kept trying to force Fallon into listening to him or doing what he wanted. I just stopped liking him more and more till after the 65% point, i started skim reading till the end because i just didn’t care about any of them. Even Fallon for forgiving him againa and again. *Sigh* i really wanted to like it as it was my first Colleen Hoover novel but i just dont like the insta love trope at all so i don’t think it was the right book for me. Oh well i think I’ll try again with another of hers.
November 9 marks the 5th Colleen Hoover book that I have read after Hopeless, It Ends With Us, Ugly Love & Slammed and I must say it may be my favourite so far.November 9 follows the story of Fallon & Ben. Fallon was a successful actress until she suffered severe burns in a house fire and is left wondering what to do with her life. Ben stumbles upon Fallon when she is having an argument with her Father in a restaurant, Ben takes it upon himself to pretend to be Fallon’s boyfriend and defends her from her Father’s harsh words. From there on in they make a pact to meet every November 9th as they get on so well. No spoilers here.. you’ll have to read it yourself to find out what happens.Just outstanding though Colleen, from page 1 until the very end it kept my attention and had me laughing and then on the verge of tears. So good, I’m lost for words at what else to say!On to the next one!
5 Amazing stars once again for the wonder that is Coleen Hoover!This book is amazing!! From the first page I was hooked, Colleen’s writing style just draws you in and hooks you, that lady is the books version of a excellent fisher woman! if that even makes sense .Anyway back to about this book, this story made me laugh so much, made me cry, made me worry made me feel everything the characters were feeling. You as the reader feel you are part of this story, living and breathing every single moment with them again proof of Hoover’s extraordinary writing ability. I love Ben and Fallon and I love the fact we see one of Hoover’s must loved couples feature in this book too. A great little surprise. I am not going to tell you too much details about Fallon and Ben, you have to read and discover this fabulous Love story yourself. But be prepared to cry, a lot!! Plenty of hankies, and to laugh a lot too and to feel all the feels this book brings out in you because believe me there is far too many to list unless I write an essay about this book!This is a must read, don’t hesitate or deliberate just buy this book and read it!! now!!!
