An affecting and resonant YA novel in verse that explores family,
community, the changing ocean tides, and what it means to fall in
love with someone who sees the world in a different way. It's been
five years since a hurricane ravaged Eliza Marino's life and home
in her quiet town on the Jersey shore. Now a senior in high school,
Eliza is passionate about fighting climate change-starting with
saving Clam Cove Reserve, an area of marshland that is scheduled to
be turned into buildable lots. Protecting the island helps Eliza
deal with her lingering trauma from the storm, but she still can't
shake the fear that something will come along and wash out her life
once again. When Eliza meets Milo Harris at a party, she tries to
hate him. Milo is one of the rich tourists who flock to the island
every summer. But after Eliza reluctantly agrees to give Milo
surfing lessons, she can't help falling for him. Still, Eliza's not
sure if she's ready to risk letting an outsider into the life she's
rebuilt. Especially once she discovers that Milo is keeping a
devastating secret. Told in stunning verse, Don't Call Me a
Hurricane is a love story for the people and places we come from,
and a journey to preserve what we love most about home.
