Yellow Birds, the debut novel by Karen Green is set just before the digital revolution, Kait is a young woman searching for identity and community among the cast-outs, cast-offs, and other “misfit toys”  – groupies – who refer to themselves as the Yellow Birds and follow a band called the Open Road from town to town. Inspired by the Grateful Dead.

Just as Kait believes she has found her place among the groupies travelling together in a messy van, a young man with the eye-roll worthy name of Horizon sits beside her and alters her fragile plan for the foreseeable future.

Amidst the whirlwind of the groupie lifestyle,  their growing feelings soar to ecstatic heights, while propelling them toward an impending reckoning with their troubled pasts. Filled with sex, drugs, music, and even cults, readers won't be able to get enough of this bohemian love story, the groupie lifestyle, and the party within the party.
