I never really read books that much before, but reading this book had definitely changed that. Once I started reading this book I didn't want to stop, I was itching to see what was going to happen next. What was interesting about this book was that her whole life, after she turned 16, was morphed around her burn scars. You never really read a book that has the main character in a situation like that and still doesn't mind talking about it. While romance isn't usually my forte when choosing a new book, it was a great one nonetheless and would be good for  romance readers or new readers in general.


November 9 by Colleen Hoover is about this girl named Fallon O’neil, who is/was an actor, and her career got put to a halt when she was in a horrible house fire. Ben Kessler pretended that he was her boyfriend in front of her dad. They ended up really getting along  but she had a tip from her mom, and decided that they would go their separate ways but still see each other on the day they met, November 9th. Every year, on the same day, for 5 years. 


The main character was a sharped tongued girl, who could more than hold her own against people. She was also insecure about her scars, she would try to not let them bother her, but they still did. When he came along he made her feel better. He made her love herself again, after she couldn't even bear to look at herself in the mirror some days. 


I would 110% recommend this book. It has a very unique storyline, and is written in a format that really ties the whole book together. The characters are very thought through and so is the plot line. It has various ways of keeping you interested, especially the plot twist. At the end of the day I would recommend this book to anyone who even has a thought of starting to read.
