OHHH MY SHAYLAS😭😭😭
TIA WILLIAMS YOU DID MY (FICTIONAL) NIECE’S STORY JUSTICE AND THEN SOME.

I don’t know if this story was pre-planned or written to satisfy fans of Audre's sharp wit in Seven Days (me) . Regardless , this was a vital end-piece to themes explored in Seven days in June while deftly balancing the needs of William’s YA audience .

I’m twenty —meaning I was literally a teen a year plus ago — but Audre and Bash are Just Friends made me feel like I was a teenager again. Messy , terribly cringe and melodramatic
, carefree yet painfully self-conscious (all in an endearing way) It was pure magic from beginning to end .

I love when publishers invest in the production of an audiobook cause this was top notch ! From the narrators, Jordan Cobb and Torian Brackett, whose chemistry was electric with the duet narration , to the notification pings whenever Audre and Bash would text . There was a lot of care taken , making it one of the best audiobooks I've ever listened to.

Thank you Hachette Audio for the ALC!
