Mr. Yay taught you to explore the world and stay true to yourself.Everyone watched it. You might want to rewatch it now, or show your own kids. Though they say it’s disappeared…Bradford Pierson, AKA Fatty Bratty, wakes up to some random dog that acts like it belongs in his apartment. Except Bratty doesn’t own a dog, despite always wanting one. Taking it as a sign, Bratty adopts the dog, rejects his parents’ expectations, and heads to LA to make beats for his best friend Tommy’s raps. Over a manic week they write and record their first album. They call themselves Mr. Yay.Bratty’s therapist, Miriam, could use some therapy herself. Lately, her workaholic husband, Jack, has been even more absent and secretive than usual. All their friends are acting weird, too. Holly’s drinking excessively. Her thrill-seeking husband is increasingly reckless. Kate and Fred stop washing their hair and start brewing kombucha and harboring racoons.As Mr. Yay climbs the charts with his rap songs, Miriam watches her life unravel. Why doesn’t Jack seem like the man she married? Why doesn’t he remember things he should? Like that other Mr. Yay from the old children’s TV show, the washed-up actor turned first-mate who sailed a boat captained by a dog. Miriam recalls the show vividly. She’s not alone. But on the internet, and according to the studio, there is no Mr. Yay. There never was.After tackling aliens, sea monsters, and werewolves in her first three books, USA Today bestselling author Emily Jane new speculative novel explores how we grapple with inexplicable, sudden shifts in the world around us—and the conspiracy theories and identity crises they birth.About The Author//Emily got into writing novels later in life. She dabbled in art, music, and poetry and spent her formative years in Boulder, Colorado, where my hippie mom fed me carob chips and dragged me to rock and gem shows.She attended UC Law San Francisco, where students competed at beer pong and were known for tearing pages out of library books, so the other students couldn’t get them. It was around this ruthless time that she started writing. After law school, she moved to Cincinnati, her forever home, and birthed two kids who bring her joy every day. She wrote, A LOT, including weird stories about floating heads and semi-feral skin-peeling children and venture capitalist werewolves - stories that she hopes you all will read some day.
