Loved this. Ate it up. Couldn’t put it down. Seems so culturally relevant right now and can’t wait to see the movie they allegedly cast Anne Hathaway in.
History
This book was so addictive- I could not put it down! It had zero lulls in the storyline for me. Plot follows a tradwife influencer living on a farm with her children when she suddenly wakes up during pioneer times with a facsimile of her family and she actually has to live the life she pretended to live online. It’s dark and twisty and I keep thinking about it. Really impressed that this is the author’s first novel and can’t wait to see it adapted for film or tv!

“Just powered through this in roughly 24 hours and HOLY SHIT... I am lost for words right now, except for WOW I FUCKING LOVED THIS Update: I've created a whole collection dedicated to my obsession with this book!”

“I would love a rundown of the research that went into this. Burke includes so many details and intimacies of this micro-culture that put words to passing almost-thoughts I’ve had. I found it incredibly satisfying. Couldn’t read it fast enough.”

“Wowza. A great read and/or listen. Trad wife life gone awry. Author and TikTok darling, Caro Claire Burke, is also co-host of podcast Diabolical Lies (see rec), with Katie Gatti Tassin. NYT review here.”
