Hey nerds, we are discussing part one of Seven Days in June by Tia Williams. This book is an instant favorite of ours, and we know you will love it too! Gather 'round as we pull back the curtain on an author's intimate struggle with self-doubt and chronic. Our narrative weaves through the vibrant streets of Brooklyn, pausing to reflect on the life of Eva, a single mother and writer navigating the complexities of raising a spirited daughter and revisiting a shared past with the enigmatic Shane Hall. The tapestry of their story is one of trauma, redemption, and the undeniable connection that literature fosters among us.
Summary:
Brooklynite Eva Mercy is a single mom and bestselling erotica writer, who is feeling pressed from all sides. Shane Hall is a reclusive, enigmatic, award-winning literary author who, to everyone's surprise, shows up in New York.
When Shane and Eva meet unexpectedly at a literary event, sparks fly, raising not only their past buried traumas, but the eyebrows of New York's Black literati. What no one knows is that twenty years earlier, teenage Eva and Shane spent one crazy, torrid week madly in love. They may be pretending that everything is fine now, but they can't deny their chemistry - or the fact that they've been secretly writing to each other in their books ever since.
Over the next seven days in the middle of a steamy Brooklyn summer, Eva and Shane reconnect, but Eva's not sure how she can trust the man who broke her heart, and she needs to get him out of New York so that her life can return to normal. But before Shane disappears again, there are a few questions she needs answered...
With its keen observations of Black life and the condition of modern motherhood, as well as the consequences of motherless-ness, Seven Days in June is by turns humorous, warm and deeply sensual.
