Book Overview

Officially RECOMMENDED BY KIRKUS REVIEWS "Our Verdict: GET IT "

"A melding of the heart between storyteller and reader."

-Dan Brown, Author of Reunion

Bestselling author Beth Duke's Anywhen is the ultimate outsider story-a young woman yearning to belong across time itself. With universal themes of love, jealousy, sacrifice, friendship, joy, loss, and forgiveness, this genre-defying novel is a story like no other...one that will stay with you long after the final page.

Baezy (rhymes with Daisy) is born in 2069, the centennial of the legendary Woodstock Music and Art Fair. That year, a wave of nostalgia sweeps her society, reviving peace, love, and flower power in fashion, music, and culture. Raised on the sounds of Joan Baez, Santana, and other Woodstock icons, Baezy dreams of experiencing the festival firsthand. When the opportunity to time travel arises, she jumps at the chance, packing her bell bottoms and peasant blouse for the ultimate adventure. But she has another reason for going-she wants to surprise her great-great-great-grandmother, Kelly Adams.

Kelly isn't a typical Woodstock attendee, either. In 1969, she's on the cusp of a groundbreaking career in artificial intelligence, work that will one day shape the utopian world Baezy calls home. Her future family reveres her contributions to history, but Baezy is about to meet her as a young woman-long before she becomes a legend.

The moment Baezy arrives, the contrast between 2101 and 1969 is staggering. Woodstock is everything she imagined and more, but her journey quickly becomes more than a weekend of music and discovery. As events unfold, she finds herself in life-altering situations she never could have anticipated.

Part adventure, part historical fiction, and all heart, Anywhen is an unforgettable journey through time and self-discovery. Perfect for fans of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, The Time Traveler's Wife, and The Midnight Library, this is Cloud Cuckoo Land meets Back to the Future-with a front-row seat to the most legendary music festival of all time.
