Seven Days of Us by Francesca Hornak

Seven Days of Us is a novel that follows the Birch family during their seven day quarantine when the eldest daughter, Olivia, comes home from treating Haag patients in Liberia. Along with their younger daughter, Phoebe, and surprise visit from Mr. Birch’s son, whom he didn’t know about until recently, the Birch family find themselves learning more than they bargained for during the holiday! With secrets abound and slow churning chaos ensuing once hidden truths are exposed, will these secrets drive an already unraveling family apart, or will it knit them back together with a stronger bond?

This novel was thoroughly interesting and original, sentimental without heavy hysterics. Although it is not exactly a sad novel, it did have its points where I was enveloped with all of the feelings and empathy of the characters, truly grasping their sadness. Hornak weaves an absorbing tale of the Birch family that kept my nose in the book, making it hard to put down. I highly recommend this book for those who enjoy novels filled with family drama and realistic endings.
