She was unlikable but also relatable 😅

I don't know if you do this sort of thing. But I need someone to spoil the twist to me to see if it's worth to buy it. I've been reading reviews, some positive some negative. And buying a copy of this book would be sort of expensive in my country, like more than a whole day's work pay. And while I'm willing to spend that money on books, I need to know if it's good or not. Please 🥺

Thanks for this. I’ve been on the fence about it and this helps!

I just started this yesterday as an audiobook and they picked the PERFECT narrator in Rebecca Lowman for this. I’m entirely hooked.

I loved it—couldn’t put it down! I’ve been thinking a lot about it… her style reminds me a bit of Joyce Carol Oates, especially in regard to that twist ending; that dark literary feel. Which I think we need a resurgence of. 💛

Excellent review- I feel the EXACT same as you about the entire thing. Loved laughing out loud at Natalie at various parts of the book. May just be my all time favorite book.

I liked it/it was ok but there was just something missing for me. I wasn’t satisfied. But I’m glad I read it

I am about halfway through and I am very much enjoying Yesteryear. I went into it thinking it would be satire and I think that has helped me and I have laughed several times already. And I honestly do not dislike Natalie entirely.

Great review! I also received an ARC and couldn’t wait for it to come out to see / hear people’s thoughts. It truly is a unique book, like nothing I’ve read before. I did not like our FMC but I think that’s ok. Overall I enjoyed it too.

I also didn’t think she was unlikable. I thought she was unhinged and those are my favorite characters!

Agree with all of this! I loved that it was something different too and while disturbing at times also funny!

I LOVE unlikable main characters so will be reading this! There are unlikable people in real life so why shouldn’t they exist in fiction too?

I got this book but then I saw pretty intense trigger warnings so now I’m nervous to read it 😭

she was totally unlikable, and the whole target interaction was true to her character of who she was.

Reading it now and I’m very disappointed as I was so looking forward to it. I have heard it described as satire but it’s not. I think Natalie is vile and some of the things she thought about her children and husband were just awful. I really think this book was marketed as more of a humorous book ( I haven’t laughed once) and I really think it could have been so much better if it was straight up funny. I’m also seeing it marketed as Literary Fiction and I don’t feel it belongs in that category - it’s more pop fiction/light thriller.
