The Seven Year Slip by Ashley Poston
5.0
4.7 ⭐️ first book i ever read of this author and oh my god. from the story itself to the author’s note on the very end of the book, holy shit i have no words. i am absolutely amazed.
the whole plot is incredible, from the moment i read what this book was about, i just wanted to read it so bad, it just caught my whole attention and the possibility of getting into the magical journey that this book is, i couldn’t help myself. i honestly read it as fast as i could trying to make it last forever at the same time. the story was so refreshing, so beautiful.. the background stories blew my mind even though i suspected on so many things that were fact’s at the end.. i was floating on this world bc i really consider this book a magical world tbh; i felt so happy reading it, as i was sad, emotional, excited and really went through every emotion as the characters were going through them. the characters!!! oh god, Analea touched my heart in so many ways, the chemistry between our main characters was so good (they were vulnerable but they find their way to each other so beautifully), the best friends added a touch of reality in this story that is not at all based in reality (as i said, it’s magical), even Vera had her moment!! but anyways, everyone fit so so soooo well. and the best is: short chapters!!!
i don’t know if it is because i’m almost 26 that i felt so connected with pretty much everything that our main character was living, or if it is because my grandfather also passed at the beginning of this year and i’m still very sensible about it (the author’s note got me crying so bad bc i just wish we hadn’t go through these losses, i wish we could’ve known something that we didn’t back then that could’ve helped and make the difference.. but we must accept how things played out and we must live cherishing the good things and memories that we have).
so, it’s a 100% yes from me, i would absolutely recommend this book. and i promise, if you’re anything like me you most likely won’t regret it for a second.
