Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke: OurSeptember Book Club Selection
Grille 3501, 3501 Broadway, Allentown, PA, USWhat if the life you pretended to live suddenly became your reality? Our September read, Yesteryear, asks us to contemplate this very question.
Yesteryear's protagonist, Natalie Heller Mills, has built an empire—and millions of followers—by sharing her picture-perfect, old-fashioned life. From homemade meals and farm chores to traditional family values, she's turned the idea of a simpler time into a modern success story.
There's just one problem: not everything her followers see is quite what it seems.
Then Natalie wakes up in 1855.
Suddenly, the carefully curated lifestyle she's been selling isn't content anymore—it's real life.
This story is darkly funny, suspenseful, and thought-provoking. It takes a fascinating look at social media, motherhood, authenticity, gender roles, ambition, and our tendency to romanticize the past. It also asks some pretty interesting questions about the difference between the lives we show the world and the ones we actually live.
Join us for another evening of delicious food as we meet at Grille 3501 at 6:30 on Thursday, September 24.
I can't wait to hear what everyone thinks about this one and spend another wonderful evening together!
