Celebrity book clubs have released their picks for November.
Reese Witherspoon selected Group, by Christie Tate.
The book takes us through Tate's experience in group therapy during her twenties, from her early reluctance to her eventual acceptance and gratitude.
"This book is a testament to the power of human connection," Witherspoon wrote in announcing her Hello Sunshine book club selection.
Jenna Bush Hager picked White Ivy, by Susie Yang.
The novel follows Ivy from a child taught to steal by her grandmother to a poised young woman whose past threatens to upend the perfect life she seems to have finally built.
Hager said, in announcing her Read With Jenna pick, that she hopes the book will inspire its readers to discuss otherness, ambition and where one looks for happiness.
Good Morning America chose Memorial, by Bryan Washington.
The novel features Mike and Benson — men living together but unsure of whether to call themselves a couple — and the personal developments they undergo when Mike leaves his mother to stay with Benson to tend to his dying father in Japan.
You can read an excerpt from Memorial in GMA's announcement of its choice.
