Seven Days in Tokyo by Jose’ Daniel Alvior

Thank you @jdalvior and @Unbounders for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Seven days Tokyo is a literature fiction genre. I love the front cover and the title, it works well together. The story is about Louie, who meets Landon in Manhattan, and they have a perfect night together because they clicked straight away. Then Louie goes to Tokyo where Landon is living and spends seven nights there where he is trying to sort out is a visa. The descriptions of Tokyo and the cherry blossoms are beautiful and made me feel as if I were there too. Made me want to visit Tokyo even more. I felt like seven days in Tokyo is a light and beautiful read. I loved the writing style and found it straightforward to read, and I also liked the characters, especially Louie and felt a connection with him and his time in Tokyo. Furthermore, I did not like Landon very much, but I did like how vulnerable he comes across in the book, which made me feel sorry for him and that he does have a heart. I feel both characters were just trying to belong somewhere or with someone because they feel lonely. A breathtaking read. I am glad I read this book, it was something different from my normal read and I thought it was a beautiful red. I will be looking for more books by Jose Daniel Alvior in the future. Not only that, but I read seven days in Tokyo in one day because I was hooked and could not put it down. Even now, I can still remember the descriptions in the book. 5 stars Blurb Two strangers meet in Manhattan and spend a perfect night together. In Tokyo, they have seven days to see if that one night might mean something more. Landon’s living alone in Tokyo as a British ‘expat’, Louie’s visiting while he anxiously waits for approval on his US visa. Against the backdrop of a misty Tokyo Spring, their precious time together is spent wandering into side streets and coffee shops, sharing unmade beds and plates of food. But as the days tick by, Louie’s expectations start to overtake reality and he falls too deeply for a life that’s not yet his. Breathtakingly tender, Seven Days in Tokyo is an astonishing debut about the intricacies of desire and a search for belonging. It is a lyrical, immersive portrait of how some things, however beautiful and profound, are destined to be as short-lived as the cherry blossoms.
