As much as I've written about Reese Witherspoon's book club, you'd think I was on a first name basis with her (wishful thinking)! But, the truth is that it's the reason I rediscovered reading for fun.

What, like it’s hard?” Coined in “Legally Blonde,” the popular phrase isn’t limited to Elle Woods embarking on her law school journey. Now, it’s not hard to find new book recommendations through Reese’s Book Club.

Whenever I need a book recommendation, I always turn to Reese Witherspoon. From rare memoirs to page-turning thrillers, the 48-year-old actress has shared her passion for reading through Reese’s Book Club (even if she got one pick wrong).

The actor has selected The Three Lives of Cate Kay by Kate Fagan and it’s said to be the perfect immersive reading, making it a great pick for the slow month of January. The character-driven novel has drawn comparisons to The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo meets First Lie Wins, so you can trust it to be a page-turner.

Now that we’re seven days into 2025, we’re already setting the tone for what’s to come in the next 12 months. Are you going to the gym more? Seeing friends more? Perhaps have an impressive reading goal for the year?
