The November Girl

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!

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.
