The Book Review · Book Club: Let's Talk About 'Yesteryear,' by Caro Claire Burke · 26 Jun 2026 podcast
I have a bunch of recs.
I have a list.
I'm going to go fast.
The first is The Compound by Aileen Rall.
I hope I'm saying her name correctly.
This is doing for reality TV what Yesteryear does for Trad Wives and the Internet.
It's this book about this completely demented reality TV show that's part Survivor and Hunger Games, but, like,
Bravo, and Love Island.
It's all of these things mashed into one.
It's insane.
And we follow this woman, Lily, who is playing the game.
And the game is basically like, find love, compete for material riches, but you also need to compete for basic survival stuff.
And then off in the background, there are the wars and the fires, and you don't know what's going on.
And Lily knows about this game.
She's playing the game.
She knows it's all an illusion.
But is the illusion better...
than what's out there in the real world.
What would you sacrifice for even a facsimile of paradise?
It's so good.
