A review by mistysbookspace
November 9 by Colleen Hoover
5.0
Ok now comes the hard part. I’m just going to warn you now that this review will probably be all over the place and it’s basically going to be me gushing about it.
November 9 is my first Colleen Hoover book and I can pretty much say with certainty that after only reading one of her books she has become a favorite author of mine but I will save that declaration until at least after I read one more of her books.
This book blew me away guys. I could have read this in one sitting but while I was reading this book I was also reading 3 other books so I had to force myself to put it down but that didn’t last too long because I had to know how the story was going to end.
In one of my older blog posts I am pretty sure I mentioned how I sometimes flip to the last page and read the last paragraph or so to find out how it ends but I only do that when I am really anxious over the book I am reading. I wanted so badly to do this while I was reading this book because Colleen had me on such an emotional roller coaster. Luckily I mentioned this on Twitter and one of my followers (who’s an author herself) talked me out of it and I am so glad she did because it made the ending so much better.
I am literally sitting here getting anxious all over again just trying to put into words how I feel about this book and something Noriko said to me recently is ringing true right now. I don’t feel like my words could ever do this book justice.
While I was reading this I went through so many emotions from feeling sympathy for one character, to being angry, happy, and sad to many others. By the end of the book I was kind of chewing on my thumb because I was so worried about how things were going to play out in the end.
I will leave y’all with a little story. Because Colleen had broken my heart and put it back together again one to many times I put the book down when I only had 72 pages left. I needed a little break to recover. About the time I laid the book down my husband walked in the room and I proceeded to go off on a tangent about what this author was doing to me and the next thing I know I had tears running down my cheeks. I hadn’t cried while reading it but as soon as I started talking about it I cried. And of course my husband being the non reader that he is just rolled his eyes and went back to what he was doing.
If you aren’t a fan of insta-love then you might not enjoy this book but in my opinion you should still give it a shot because the characters are so painfully aware of the insta-love and are constantly comparing what they are going through to different books and it makes it some what comical.
