The Seven Year Slip
"A gorgeous love story from one of the finest romance writers out there." --Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After
A New York Public Library Best Book of 2023 A Most Anticipated Book by Entertainment Weekly ∙ Harper's Bazaar ∙ PopSugar ∙ Real Simple ∙ BookRiot ∙ and more! An overworked book publicist with a perfectly planned future hits a snag when she falls in love with her temporary roommate...only to discover he lives seven years in the past, in this witty and wise new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Dead Romantics. Sometimes, the worst day of your life happens, and you have to figure out how to live after it. So Clementine forms a plan to keep her heart safe: work hard, find someone decent to love, and try to remember to chase the moon. The last one is silly and obviously metaphorical, but her aunt always told her that you needed at least one big dream to keep going. And for the last year, that plan has gone off without a hitch. Mostly. The love part is hard because she doesn't want to get too close to anyone--she isn't sure her heart can take it. And then she finds a strange man standing in the kitchen of her late aunt's apartment. A man with kind eyes and a Southern drawl and a taste for lemon pies. The kind of man that, before it all, she would've fallen head-over-heels for. And she might again. Except, he exists in the past. Seven years ago, to be exact. And she, quite literally, lives seven years in his future. Her aunt always said the apartment was a pinch in time, a place where moments blended together like watercolors. And Clementine knows that if she lets her heart fall, she'll be doomed. After all, love is never a matter of time--but a matter of timing.

I didn’t want to put this book down! If he wanted to he would this love was a wild ride and I loved it!
I thought this was a charming read that nicely explored the themes of grief, acceptance, and the bittersweet nature of moving on. I really enjoyed Ashley’s writing. It was heartfelt and evocative which really brought the characters love and human connection to life in my mind. The writing was so well done that I found myself seeking Clementine to live in the past when all along, she should have been cherishing the present. What a great book.
I did not expect a book with such a cute happy yellow cover to make me cry so much. Iâll leave it at that.
i'll be honest i gave one and a half fucks about the romance.
the aunt plot was good, i enjoyed it. it actually brought tears to my eyes (not out of them but still).
it wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst either i guess.

Oh my gosh! Love love loveeeeee this book. If you’re a happy or sad crier I would not recommend listening to this book via headphones during a road trip with dudes in the car that will laugh at you when you start tearing up trying to drive. But gahhh I love this book! I’m such a fan of fantasy even subtle fantasy like this. Honestly, time travel is also my fav. Seeing it all connect and click and come into place and make sense. It’s the best! I’m also an extreme hopeless romantic so this book just checked all the boxes. Did I mention I love it??!!
