Yesteryear

Is anyone reading Yesteryear? I have just finished and need to talk about it. I loved it and did not see the ‘twist’ coming at all!

I read it after a recommendation on here. It was OK, wouldn't say I loved it.

I've just finished the Audible version. What I found difficult was that I just couldn't warm to any of the characters. I thought the premise was interesting - I have often wondered how Youtubers run their lives and how much they really do themselves. I also liked the interesting observations about the lies women are sold about having it all or being a trad wife. I thought it didnt really come to any conclusions though, just seemed shit for women whatever they do. I was not surprised about the ending, I kind of guessed where it was going. I thought it was well written though. I zipped through it in a few days which is most unlike me.

I’ve just finished it! The twist was… interesting. I sort of liked it and sort of felt a bit flat about it all at once… I wasn’t wowed by it (the twist) like I thought and hoped I’d be.

I feel like I have a lot of questions, especially how old Caleb was able to get an erection.

I thought he was able to get an erection because he felt he was now in charge, whereas previously she was very much the dominant partner. I thought the ending was a bit of a shocker. I didn’t see it coming, and thought it was very rushed and left some things unexplained, like Caleb’s fate. The book as a whole was flawed but I really enjoyed it and look forward to the movie.
