Book description
All Our Yesterdays
Audiobook Review
Cristin Terrill's debut novel presents a meticulously crafted temporal thriller that transcends conventional young adult fiction through its sophisticated narrative architecture and profound exploration of sacrifice. The audiobook format enhances the dual timeline structure, allowing listeners to experience the stark contrast between Marina's seemingly ordinary adolescent concerns and Em's harrowing imprisonment within a dystopian future.
The author establishes two distinct narrative voices that converge through time travel mechanics, creating a compelling framework wherein character development and plot progression maintain perfect synchronicity. Marina's romantic uncertainty regarding her best friend James provides essential emotional grounding before their world fractures under assassination attempts and relentless pursuit. Conversely, Em's desperate circumstances within the military facility demonstrate how drastically their shared timeline has deteriorated.
Terrill's temporal warfare concept proves both original and thoroughly examined, avoiding superficial treatment of time travel paradoxes while maintaining accessibility for general audiences. The audiobook's pacing mirrors the story's escalating tension, with narration that appropriately shifts between intimate character moments and high-stakes action sequences.
The central thematic conflict-whether to preserve personal happiness or prevent global catastrophe-resonates throughout both timelines. Each protagonist's journey examines how ordinary individuals respond when forced to bear extraordinary responsibility. The story's resolution, wherein only one timeline can survive, demonstrates sophisticated understanding of temporal mechanics while delivering genuine emotional impact.
This audiobook succeeds through its refusal to prioritize plot mechanics over character authenticity. Both Marina and Em represent fully realized individuals whose choices carry genuine weight within Terrill's carefully constructed temporal framework.
