Seven Days in June | Book Review by Felicia

 

About:

Seven Days in June is an adult romance novel that highlights the history of a short teenage love that is destined to reignite.  The characters in this novel deal with intense issues but they find a way to push through on their own and even better together. 

I want to start off by giving a trigger warning this book contains topics such as trauma, sexual assault, and self harm. 

Review:

The novel starts off in an unique and unexpected way that immediately draws a reader into the story. A story about Eva, a successful erotica writer who is trying to make a pivot in her writing career. As a Black woman writer who has forged a career in a genre that isn’t typically deemed respectable Eva tends to doubt her own worth and credibility. Then there is Shane, a critically acclaimed writer who doesn’t write anymore but chooses to mentor children. Even though they have been a part for many years Eva and Shane have always been in conversation with each other. Tia Williams excellently demonstrates the intricacies in a second chance romance. I honestly couldn’t stop reading and when it was over I wanted more of Eva and Shane’s story.  I highly suggest reading this book and rereading it.
