SUMMARY:July Books & Banter Fiction Book Club: Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke
DESCRIPTION:Books & Banter is our general fiction book club\, focusing on great new reads that matter! As always\, our book clubs are free and open to all\, and the book club pick is 10% off the regular price. You bring the conversation\, we’ll provide the treats! \n\n\n\nThis month’s pick is Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke\, a sharp\, darkly funny novel that turns nostalgia on its head.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNatalie Heller Mills has built an empire as a social media influencer celebrating a picture-perfect traditional lifestyle. With millions of followers\, a charming farmhouse\, and a carefully curated image\, she seems to have it all.  \n\n\n\nBut when she suddenly awakens in 1855\, she finds herself facing the harsh realities behind the romanticized past she’s spent years promoting. Gone are the conveniences\, comforts\, and carefully managed appearances of modern life. \n\n\n\nAs Natalie struggles to survive and uncover what has happened to her\, she must confront difficult truths about privilege\, gender roles\, fame\, and identity. Clever\, provocative\, and impossible to put down\, this is a fascinating blend of satire\, suspense\, and speculative fiction that will spark lively conversation.
