"Girls are given the weight of the world, but nowhere to put it down. The power and magic born in that struggle? It’s so terrifying to men that we invented reasons to burn y’all at the stake, just to keep our dicks hard."
Seven Days In June is about two writers. They had an intense week-long relationship in their teens, and have been using each other as muses for their writing ever since.
I absolutely loved this book. I thought it was written beautifully and I truly felt the intensity of their relationship. I really liked how the story was revealed one a day at a time, flicking between past and present.
It also raised some interesting topics such as disability, generational trauma, positive co-parenting, and online fan culture.
The only reason that this wasn't a 5* for me was just because I felt the ending was a little rushed. Minor spoilers:
I'd really recommend this one, but maybe check out content warnings first.
"I had to teach myself how to breathe again, in a world without you in it."
