November 9 is an adult fiction novel by New York Times Bestselling Author Colleen Hoover. When Fallon was 16 years old, she was scarred in a house fire, destroying her career as a young actress. While arguing with her dad during lunch on the second anniversary of the fire, a young writer named Ben comes to her rescue. Fallon is moving to New York the next day and neither want to begin a relationship, but they agree to meet on November 9 for the next five years so Ben can write a book about it. With no contact at all on the other days of the year, will they draw closer together or further apart?
Sex: Moderate to high. The scenes are pretty easy to skip if the reader desires to do so.
Language: Moderate to high.
Drug/Alcohol Use: Minor. It doesn't play a big role in the book.
Violence/Gore/Frightening Scenes/Death: A character close to a main character dies in an accident. Ben's mother died a couple of years earlier. When the story surrounding her death comes out later, it's a little difficult to read. The circumstances surrounding the fire are also emotionally distressing.
Final Note: The general story line in this book is good. The idea of meeting on the same day every year, and only on that day, is intriguing. Because of the sexual content and language, this book wasn't my favorite. I feel that it could have been just as good a book without it. But as for the story itself, it was a good read. It had just the right amount of suspense and drama.
