![]() ![]() ![]() It was really hard to pick a favourite between these two perspectives, because even though I’ll always side with the bullied, rather than the bully, it was really eye opening to realise that everyone’s a victim at somebody else’s hand. And, unlike a normal week in the life of Maddie and Bee, every day increasingly dramatic things happened that had me clinging on to this book until I’d finish it. For each day of the week, the two main characters give their perspective of what happened, and it really helped to keep the story moving forward at a considerable pace! Once you’ve read one day, you have to see what happens the next. The title, Seven Days, is a nod to the story telling. Matters aren’t helped when Lyn, Kez’s boyfriend, starts to get friendly with Jess and cause even more jealousy between the two of them… Seven Days is the story of Jess, an overweight girl who doesn’t have many friends, and is being bullied for how she looks by Kez, a girl with a lot going on beneath her angry surface. So, if you’re dying to read a certain book but are apprehensive about whether you’ll like it or not, why not check out libraries? Now, on to the review… Seven Days was a book I also got from the library, which I’m so grateful for, because while I did like reading it, it’s not the kind of book I would have wanted to spend lots of money on. This was the first YA book I read for the #cramathon and I’m really pleased because it was the perfect book to start with: fast, short and overall enjoyable. ![]()
