The November Girl

By: Lydia Kang

Narrated by: Piper Goodeve, Cody Roberts

I am Anda, and the lake is my mother. I am the November storms that terrify sailors and sink ships. With their deaths, I keep my little island on Lake Superior alive.

Hector has come here to hide from his family until he turns 18. Isle Royale is shut down for the winter, and there's no one here but me. And now him.

Hector is running from the violence in his life, but violence runs through my veins. I should send him away, to keep him safe. But I'm half human, too, and Hector makes me want to listen to my foolish, half-human heart. And if I do, I can't protect him from the storms coming for us.

Contains mature themes.

Intoxicating, Beautiful, and Heart Wrenching

It has been a while since I have listened to a book that has pulled me in so quickly. The narrators did a stunning job and the story was woven beautifully! The speed of the story progression was perfect and I fell in love with the characters. A little different, something like a breath of fresh air.
I highly recommend this book!

Just one word? UNIQUE

I've read many fantasy books, but none quite like this. The characters are "real" in this book. Many books I've read the teenagers are irritatingly annoying or WAY too old.
I didn't read any MATURE themes as they said. It was a PG book I would say.

Very intriguing, would definitely recommend

I can’t even criticize anything, the voice actors are really good, the writing style is very unique, I found it captivating. I’m definitely interested in reading more of the authors works and I’d definitely recommend checking it out :)

Great story and good listen!

This story was well written and perfectly narrated. Easy to follow and stop/ start.

Very Different

This book is an eerily Different Love Story. The parallels between this young couple’s lives were interestingly undeniable. I enjoyed it until the end...I had hoped for either more to it or a sequel. But overall it was unique and interesting!

excellent

a new way to tell a story of creatures of the lake but still a predictable ending but doesn't mean it's not good

Unique and very interesting

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Kang a few years ago but I hadn't had the time to read one of her books. I was so excited to see that audible did! I loved the back and forth of the two narrators. I was a little hesitant though that the narrator for Hector sounded too mature for Hector's age, but after awhile I got used to it. Dr. Kang did such a nice job of spinning the tales of the two main characters and weaving them together. It was a story line I never would've imagined, but so well done!

4.5 stars!

Before listening to this audiobook I hadn't known about the November storms or witches, not isle royal. I didn't know any folklore about Lake Superior. And this was a great way to learn.

the story was good, I'll give it 4 stars, and the performance by both narrators was great! I didn't find any surprising twists but I enjoyed the flow of the story!

Wonderful

I rarely read stand alone books preferring series but this was such a delightful and darkly honest story I will read more of them now. Thank you to the author and narrators for such a wonderful story.

Loved it

Great story. Absolutely loved it. I’m going to have to check out this authors other work. Started out a little slow for me but overall great story and loved both the narrators.
