Seven Days
by Rebeka Shaid
When teens Aamir and Noor meet, they are both reeling from loss and trying to figure out what being from Pakistani/mixed families in the UK means for them: how to handle family expectations, wearing or not wearing a headscarf… What they are definitely not looking for is further complications. A warm, coming-of-age romance with relatable narrators and a good dose of situational humour.
