Add us as a preferred source on Google »2026 has been one of the strongest years for the publishing world, with Yesteryear becoming one of the most raved-about books of the year by a long shot.
The haunting and unsettling novel has become a number one best-seller all around the world, and we're not one bit surprised to see readers become completely obsessed with the novel.
Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke 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.
Amazon MGM Studios is already working on a feature adaptation of the 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.
