a Note from jules
If a certain celebrity book club pick is not yet updated, it probably means it hasn’t been announced yet. I am usually able to update celebrity book club lists on this website the day they are announced (or before if I have access to a confirmed spoiler).
Details of the Current Celebrity Book Club Picks
Below are all the most recent celebrity book club spoilers for the following book clubs:
- Reese’s Book Club
- The Today Show’s Read with Jenna book club

- Jimmy Fallon Book Club
Oprah’s Book Club and Reese’s Book Club are the most popular celebrity book clubs.
Reese’s Book Club Pick for May 2025
Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club (through her company Hello Sunshine) focuses its picks on women’s stories in a variety of genres, from romance to thrillers.
My Review: ★★☆☆☆
In Great Big Beautiful Life, aspiring writer Alice Scott and grumpy Pulitzer Prize winner Hayden Anderson are both invited to Little Crescent Island to compete for the chance to write the biography of the elusive heiress Margaret Ives. Given one month to prove themselves, they uncover secrets and tension—not just in Margaret’s muddled story but in their own growing connection. What unfolds could be a mystery, a tragedy, or a love story.
This book was a departure from Emily Henry’s usual contemporary romance novels in that the spicy love story only accounted for half of the story. I applaud her for trying something new.
The rest was Margaret’s story, which did have a satisfying twist. However, for me, this book had an identity crisis that made neither half compelling to me as a reader. It also aligned too closely with the beloved book The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid and lacked enough differences to make it its own.
Reese’s Summer 2025 YA Pick
In Stuck Up and Stupid, a modern, teen spin on Pride and Prejudice, small-town girl Lily clashes with Hollywood heartthrob Dorian Khan when he arrives at Pippi Beach for the summer.
Though she initially finds him arrogant and out of touch, their repeated run-ins spark feelings and force her to question her initial assumptions. This witty beach read explores fame, identity, and love in the age of social media.
The Today Show’s Read With Jenna Book Club Pick for June 2025
The Today Show’s Read with Jenna Bush Hager book club reads books that are often offered by Book of the Month. Many of the selections are character-driven and/or diverse.
In A Family Matter, young mother Dawn finds her world transformed in 1982 by a powerful connection with another woman, forcing her to choose between love and responsibility. Forty years later, Heron, now facing a life-altering diagnosis, struggles to share long-held secrets with his daughter Maggie. This debut novel unravels a hidden family history.
On a positive note, it’s only 240 pages! Jenna recommends it to fans of families with big secrets and books with unexpected twists and turns.

Good Morning America Book Club Pick for May 2025
The GMA book club reads books that are topical and offer a lot of issues to discuss. In September 2024, they started picking Young Adult books in addition to adult selections.
The Original Daughter follows Genevieve Yang, a driven teen in working-class Singapore whose life shifts with the arrival of Arin, a secret half-sister tied to family shame.
After the two girls form a bond shaped by their academic pressure and social isolation, their relationship unravels. Set in a rapidly modernizing society, this sharp debut explores ambition, identity, and the ties of sisterhood.
GMA shared that it asks thought-provoking questions about found family and love that is committed like a crime.
Good Morning America’s June 2025 YA Pick
In the dual-timeline sapphic romance Time After Time, college student Libby buys a mysterious old house and teams up with resourceful Tish to restore it, sparking an unexpected connection.
As they grow closer, Libby uncovers a century-old journal revealing a forbidden love between two women who once lived there. The parallels between past and present raise a haunting question: Are Libby and Tish repeating a love story that fate is giving them a chance to finish?

Oprah’s New Book Club Selection
Oprah Winfrey’s book club dates back to the 1990s and is known for reading classics and very literary works emphasizing Black stories.
(Note: Oprah tends to announce her picks sporadically and not on any particular schedule.)
The Emperor of Gladness follows Hai, a nineteen-year-old in a struggling Connecticut town, who’s about to end his life when a stranger’s voice changes his path. He becomes the caretaker of Grazina, an elderly widow with dementia, and together they form an unexpected bond that reshapes their lives.
This powerful novel explores grief, healing, and human connection with poetic language and emotional depth. Oprah called it “extraordinary poetic literature” and “some of the most beautiful writing I’ve experienced in my lifetime.”

The Latest Jimmy Fallon Book Club Pick
Nearly every Summer for a few years, beginning in 2018, The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon shared a list of books and had viewers vote on which book to read together. The club took a bit of a hiatus after 2022, then reemerged in March 2024.
- New York Times bestseller
- Book of the Month’s Book of the Year
My Review: ★★★★★
In The God of the Woods, it’s August 1975, and a teenager disappears from her Adirondack summer camp, throwing the camp and the surrounding community into turmoil.
As the daughter of the camp’s wealthy owners, her disappearance stirs up old wounds, particularly because her older brother vanished under similar mysterious circumstances fourteen years earlier. The ensuing search reveals hidden secrets and tensions within both the affluent owners and the working-class locals employed by the camp.
Many are calling this the book of the summer!

Thank you for this list! I compile a monthly book club picks spreadsheet for the public library where I work, and your lists are so helpful! I also track (3) Literati clubs – Atlas Obscura, Roxanne Gay (The Audacious Book Club), and Megan Rapinoe (The Call In); booktok bookclub (TikTok); “Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall The Duchess of Cornwall’s Reading Room”; Belletrist; Goop; Marie Claire’s #ReadWithMarieClaire; Saveur Cookbook Club; Veranda Magazine Sip & Read Book Club; Vox Book Club; and Noah Syndergaard (LA Angels).
Good to know! Maybe I will start tracking those too. I love the Literati clubs too.
