The narrative unfolds through Abi's eyes, revealing a rich tapestry of descriptions and dialogues that border on poetry. Along her journey, Abi encounters eccentric characters, including loyal companions like Zero and enigmatic figures like The Marys.

With its unique storytelling, memorable characters, and profound themes, "Seven at Two Past Five" captivates readers and earns a solid recommendation for those seeking a literary experience that defies convention.
"Seven at Two Past Five" by Tara Basi is a captivating journey through the mind of Abi, a woman dedicated to her craft of button making. As she navigates a surreal world plagued by enigmatic Terrors and unjust accusations, readers are drawn into a narrative that blends fantasy, mystery, and existential exploration elements.
Basi's writing style is a standout feature of this book, weaving rhythmic streams of descriptions and dialogues that border on poetry. The first-person perspective immerses readers in Abi's world, allowing for a deep appreciation of her simple yet fulfilling life. Through her eyes, ordinary objects and routines take on new significance, inviting readers to join her in confusion and discovery.
The cast of characters, from loyal companions like Zero to enigmatic figures like The Marys, adds depth and intrigue to Abi's journey. The parallels to "Alice in Wonderland" are evident as both protagonists navigate surreal landscapes populated by eccentric individuals. Abi's resilience and determination shine through despite their challenges, guiding readers toward a hopeful conclusion.
I love the comparison, but this book makes it easy to read; it is flawlessly smooth with no errors or nothing to deduct points. But While the narrative may be unconventional, its themes of justice, identity, and the search for meaning resonate profoundly. Basi skillfully explores these themes amidst a world that defies easy categorization. The book challenges readers to embrace its absurdity and engage in open-minded discussion, making it a thought-provoking read for adults.
In conclusion, Although some may find certain aspects of the book unsettling, such as its explicit content and ambiguous genre, these elements contribute to its complexity and depth. Ultimately, "Seven at Two Past Five" is an immersive and rewarding experience earning 5 out of 5 stars.
