About us
Calling all cute girlies who just want to make friends and drink wine--oh and also enjoy reading the occasional book here and there! This is not a book club where we'll discuss women's place in the world or how to grow and empower women (totally love that, but it's not the goal here)--this is the book club for girls that want to have a glass of wine and debate things like which Fairy book character sounds hotter. We read for fun and to have light hearted conversations, and honestly making friends as an adult is hard! Let's read something fun that makes us forget the doom and gloom of the world and have some fun conversations and hopefully develop some lasting friendships! <3
Based out of Houston, TX!

FULL SYNOPSIS:
A traditional American woman, a beautiful wife and mother who sells her pioneer lifestyle of raw milk and farm-fresh eggs to her millions of social media followers, suddenly awakens cold, filthy, and terrified in the brutal reality of 1805—where she must unravel whether this living nightmare is an elaborate hoax, a twisted reality show, or something far more sinister in this sensational debut novel. My name was Natalie Heller Mills, and I was perfect at being alive. Natalie lives a traditional lifestyle.
Her charming farmhouse is rustic, her husband a handsome cowboy, her six children each more delightful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers behind the scenes, her kitchen hiding industrial-grade fridges and ovens, her husband the Republican equivalent of a Kennedy? What Natalie's followers—all 8 million of them-don't know won't hurt them. And The Angry Women? The privileged, Ivy League, coastal elite haters who call her an antifeminist iconoclast? They're sick with jealousy. Because Natalie isn't simply living the good life, she's living the ideal-and just so happens to be building an empire from it. Until one morning she wakes up in a life that isn't hers. Her home, her husband, her children—they're all familiar, but something's off. Her kitchen is warmed by a sputtering fire rather than electricity, her children are dirty and strange, and her soft-handed husband is suddenly a competent farmer.
Just yesterday Natalie was curating photos of homemade jam for her Instagram, and now she's expected to haul firewood and handwash clothes until her fingers bleed.
Has she become the unwitting star of a brutal reality show? Could it really be time travel? Is she being tested by God? By Satan? When Natalie suffers a brutal injury in the woods, she realizes two things: This is not her beautiful life, and she must escape by any means possible. A gripping, electrifying novel that is as darkly funny as it is frightening, Yesteryear is a gimlet-eyed look at tradition, fame, faith, and the grand performance of womanhood.18 attendees
