I got to read an advance copy of the book, and I couldn’t put it down. The characters are fascinating and the story really pulls you in. If you’re a fan of YA dystopia, you’ll love it.

It was entertaining and…just amazing. I love books where I get so absorbed into the book, it just feels like I’m watching a movie. This book, Seven, did that to me.

I had the incredible opportunity to read Seven before its release and even play a small role in bringing it to life by helping design the book cover. It was an honor and privilege to support a good friend while also stretching my own creativity.

Anyone who knows me knows I’m not much of a “reader,” but when Shawn handed me his book, I knew I had to dive in—not only to understand his vision for the cover but also to experience the story he had created. And wow, I’m so glad I did.

Seven is one of those books that grabs you from the very first page and doesn’t let go. I finished it in just two days because I simply couldn’t put it down. The world Shawn builds is immersive, thought-provoking, and filled with characters you instantly connect with. Each chapter leaves you wanting more, making it impossible to stop turning the pages.

Shawn’s storytelling is compelling, engaging, and incredibly well-crafted. Whether you’re an avid reader or someone who only picks up a book occasionally, Seven is a must-read. I can’t wait for the release of his next book and highly recommend Seven to anyone looking for an awesome read.
