Yesteryear was a satirical delight. It hooks the reader immediately with its perfectly flawed characters and its fantastic premise. It is engaging, funny and thought-provoking, even if the ending lags ever so slightly.

From the darkest premise (a woman loses her entire family on her daughter's wedding day when a gas leak and explosion destroys the house where they are all staying) comes a beautiful and, at times, uplifting story about finding hope to go on when there is no hope. It's a deeply moving and unforgettable look at the strength of the human heart.
This book of dark secrets opens with a blaze. On the morning of her daughter's wedding, June Reid's house goes up in flames, destroying her entire family - her present, her past and her future.

When sixteen-year-old Ashlee Sutton's home life falls apart, she is beset by a rare mental illness that makes her believe she's clairvoyant. While most people scoff at her, she begins demonstrating an uncanny knack for sometimes predicting the future, using what could either be pure luck or something more remarkable. And when she helps her drug-addict father win enough casino cash to accidentally overdose, she becomes the target of violent people determined to exploit her, and she goes on the run. Ashlee reaches out to a distant relative, traumatized war journalist Mike Baker. Soon, at least in Ashlee's eyes, they are both plunging dangerously into an existential rabbit hole where their core belief, that humanity and personal connections are a blight, will be put to the ultimate test. No, You’re Crazy is a multilayered novel that examines the many ways a family can wound and heal us. A page-turning thriller and a sensitive look at faith and neurodiversity, it ultimately dares to ask, Who gets to decide what’s real?
