Add us as a preferred source on Google »2026 has been one of the strongest years for the publishing world, but it is only set to get better with the pending publication of Yesteryear.
Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke is one of the most-anticipated novels of the year by a long shot, and there's no doubt this will be the book everyone will be talking about in April.
The novel follows a modern tradwife influencer, Natalie Mills, who has a perfect life on Instagram, but her world is flipped upside down when she wakes up one day in 1805, without the perfectly curated life she once had.
Yesteryear hasn't even been published yet, but Amazon MGM Studios is already working on a feature adaptation of the forthcoming novel. Amazon MGM Studios reportedly won a major bidding war that involved three other studios.
Emmy winner Hannah Friedman will pen the script, with Anne Hathaway set to star and produce.
Natalie lives a traditional lifestyle - and has the social media accounts to prove it. Her charming farmhouse on her working ranch is artfully cluttered, her husband is a handsome cowboy, her homemade sourdough boules are each more beautiful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers and industrial-grade ovens behind the scenes? What Natalie's followers don't know won't hurt them.
Then, one morning, Natalie wakes up in a strange, horrible version of reality. Her home, her husband, her children-they're all familiar, but something's off. Is this a hoax? A reality show? A test from God? Natalie knows just two things for sure: this isn't her perfect life, and she must escape by any means possible.
Pre-order Yesteryear here.
Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke will be published on April 7th.
