New Bites: C. K. Kelly Martin - Yesterday

  

Yesterday is a fast paced post-apocalyptic time-travel novel of two teens on the run. Perfect for fans of James Dashner's The Maze Runner and Laini Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone .

 




     THEN: The formation of the UNA, the high threat of eco-terrorism,
the mammoth rates of unemployment and subsequent escape into a world of
virtual reality are things any student can read about in their 21st
century textbooks and part of the normal background noise to Freya
Kallas's life. Until that world starts to crumble.





     NOW: It's 1985. Freya Kallas has just moved across the world and
into a new life. On the outside, she fits in at her new high school, but
Freya feels nothing but removed. Her mother blames it on the grief over
her father's death, but how does that explain the headaches and why do
her memories feel so foggy? When Freya lays eyes on Garren Lowe, she
can't get him out of her head. She's sure that she knows him, despite
his insistence that they've never met. As Freya follows her instincts
and pushes towards hidden truths, the two of them unveil a strange and
dangerous world where their days may be numbered. Unsure who to trust,
Freya and Garren go on the run from powerful forces determined to tear
them apart and keep them from discovering the truth about their shared
pasts (and futures), her visions, and the time and place they really
came from. Yesterday will appeal to fans of James Dashner's The Maze Runner, Veronica Roth's Divergent, Amy Ryan's Glow, Laini Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone, and Ally Condie's Matched.
