When the bookseller matches the book cover...๐Ÿ’›

If you've built an online following as a 'Trad Wife' who lives and lectures your followers on 'the true American family dream', waking up on a homestead 1800s should be a walk in the park, right? 
Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke is like if The Handmaid's Tale, Kindred, and The Stepford Wives had a literary baby. It will horrify, it will entrance, it will unsettle. ๐Ÿ„

Grab signed copies in-store while they last!
