Description

⚡️FAST APPROVALS!

Sixteen-year-old Indi Brooks is seeing things that aren't there... at least not there right now.

Indi has always had anemoia: nostalgia for a time period before she was born. But when visions of the past begin invading her waking life, she starts to realize something unexplainable is happening. She’s actually seeing history. At first it's just a flicker she can explain away, a sudden brief flash of a room that isn't hers.

Then the visions start dragging her under completely, dropping her into moments she couldn't have witnessed and shouldn't be able to see. Moments that once shaped the world: events whispered about in rumors or buried completely.

She doesn't know how to control the ability, why it's happening, or why it's her. And she definitely doesn't know why what she sees keeps contradicting everything she's been taught. But once some doors open, they can't be closed. No matter how desperately she might want them to.

Question everything you know about the past.


ABOUT THE BOOK

The Vibe: A concept-driven, upper YA coming-of-age speculative fiction primarily set in the year 2000. It explores the little-known stories behind some of history's most famous figures and events as told through the eyes of a 16-year-old girl who discovers there's more to herself than even she knew.

The Research: The book features eight mini stories about some of the most famous historical figures and events. While the specific scenes and dialogue are dramatized, they are grounded in extensive historical research.

Who it's for: Those who like historical puzzles, coming-of-age stories, high-concept YA, hidden history, or you're just nostalgic for the year 2000.

Content note: While this novel is written for young adults, it's intended as an upper YA novel that may not be suitable for younger teens. It contains mild profanity and period-accurate historical content (including colonialism, prejudice, and mild violence) that some readers may find distressing. The sensitive material is handled with restraint, and events are witnessed or referenced rather than graphically depicted. These elements serve to accurately reflect the complexities of the past rather than to shock the reader.
