Best book I have read in a while.  I enjoyed it so much I ordered five copies to give as gifts to good friends.  A great read.  I especially enjoyed the way the author was able to weave Biblical history into the present with the finding of the important documents and having them translated. I didn't want the book to end!

One of the best reads I've had in a while.  This book kept me captured from page 1 until the end.  It was HARD to put down.  Even my husband - who rarely likes to read what I like - found it irrestible and unable to put the book down until he finished.  Hoping there's a sequel...

One of the best books I've read in a while. I was thoroughly challenged and entertained as I read. The author knows how to challenge you as a person while you laugh and cry with her heroine.

Seven Days of Us starts out slowly but stay with it because it is one of the best books I have read in a while.  Told in alternating viewpoints, the Birch family chronicles the seven days they spend in quarantine (or as the patriarch Andrew Birch calls it Haag arrest) following the older daughter Olivias return from Africa where she was treating a deadly ebola-like virus called the Haag virus.  Each Birch member has secrets that are slowly revealed as the story unfolds.  Francesca Hornak masterfully weaves various characters tales together in a witty and believable manner that kept me laughing (except for one heartbreaking scene) and dying to know what would happen next.  The characters are well-developed, and the author delves into the circumstances that create each individuals current circumstance and personality.  In doing so, Hornak adds depth to each character, and I found myself more sympathetic to the characters that were not as likeable initially.

On a side note, Hornak delves into the treating of the Haag virus, and I found the required protocols followed by Olivia and her fellow doctors fascinating and somewhat depressing and scary.  While humans have made great strides treating various diseases, Olivias tale is a reminder that we still have a long way to go towards eradicating other maladies.  Such detail also made me sympathize with Olivia as she tries to reintegrate into first world society.

I highly, highly recommend Seven Days of Us and am certain it will qualify as a top ten book of 2017 for me.  Thanks to BookBrowse for the chance to read this ARC.

this book was the best read I have had in a while. It kept me in suspence all the way through wondering when things are going to happen, then wham it is happening and you just hate to put the book down.  The characters were great in the story and very discriptive.

One of the best books I have read in a while.  It starts out kind of slow but soon builds and takes you on a journey you did not expect.

One of the best books I have read in a while.  Great character development, researched history and lots of action, drama, mystery and closure.  Even a little romance was slipped into the story.

It is the best book I have read in a while.  So many things I should have been doing, but kept going back to read this book.  Now I am going to read other books by this author.

One of the best books I've read in a while! Wish I could have met them while they were touring the book in my town!

I know a lot of people shy away from indie authors and don't really branch out. Well I'm here to tell you this is one of the best books I have read in a while and thats saying somethIng. Since I devour at least eight or more books a week.  I received this copy free from Goodreads Giveaways. I had to buy the first book in order this read the second and I'm glad I did. I don't know how she has done it because her characters are so vivid and remarkable. I laughed so many times and got frustrated right along with the characters. I had several people look strangely at me because I bursted out laughing. I didn't even realize I was making noises until someone shushed me. Lol. It goes to show how deep I was in this book. In both books really. I love the fact it touches on some key concerns with today's society with technology. I would recommend this book to anyone and I'm excited and twisting my thumbs about a third book in this series. I can't wait to read what she has in store next!

Best book I have read in a while.  It seems more like you would read in a teen section but that doesn't change how good it was.

This is the best book I have read in a while.  When I moved from chapter one to chapter two, I thought I had been mistaken, that this is not a novel but a collection of short stories.  And perhaps it could be seen that way.  But the clever and intriguing weaving of threads of characters and events subtly at first and then quite clearly reveal the tapestry of a wonderfully realized novel.

Best book that I have read in a while.  It is amazing that the events she wrote about is coming to past.  This book sheads light on what this country is becoming.  When ther is no reward for work then no one works.  I need a reward to work hard. This story should keep the reader wanting to finish the book quickly.

I can honestly say that this is the best book i've read in a while.

I liked Kauffman's anecdotes about the New Brunswick of my brother's day, a New Brunswick I had just left. His tales of mishaps and crazy roommate stories made me laugh.  His musings of figuring out who he was and who he was going to be made me nod in remembrance.
