June's Book Club Pick: Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke 💐

Poll: June's Book Club pick is Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke. I am so excited to read this polarizing book about a modern-day social media trad wife that is sent back in time to live in a more grueling pioneer era.

You can join the conversation on Rootbound's discord! Just be sure to mute the chapter channels, as there will be spoilers through the last listed chapter in the channel title. The channels are now live! If you want to have a chance to vote for next month's book club pick, consider upgrading to the Moss tier. 🪨

Happy reading!!

Help me pick June’s book club pick!

I have a very exciting announcement 🌱🌙🕯️🌥️ #rootbound #booktok #bookish #bookclubpick

Reading thru Recovery ❤️‍🩹

In this vlog, I read Cry, Voidbringer, left the house for the first time, bought new books, opened a blind date with a book, and took a fall. This is a very chatty, vulnerable, reading vlog.

Welcome to Rootbound 🌿

Thanks so much for being here. I’m Kenzi! You can find me as @kenzibooks on Instagram and TikTok, @kenzidid on YouTube, Kenzi Didericksen on Goodreads, and Rootbound on Discord. My reading taste ranges from rainy, melancholic literary fiction to gothic, epic, literary, or high-stakes fantasy... with the occasional emotional romance or dark thriller novel woven in between.

No matter the genre, you can expect stories with deep emotional roots: moody atmospheres, morally gray characters, lingering plot lines, and books that stay with you long after you close them.

However you choose to participate here, I truly appreciate your support and am so excited to connect with fellow readers. Thanks for stopping by Rootbound! I hope you’ll stay awhile. 🌧️ 🕯️🧚‍♀️

You can participate as a sprout, moss, or vine, and unlock cool perks. If you want access to more content, a chance to vote for our upcoming book club picks, exclusive reviews, or you just want to support me (🥹), you can do so within a Bindery membership & it would mean the world.

I hope to see you around 🖤
