Celebrity book clubs have released their picks for May 2021.
Reese Witherspoon selected The Last Thing He Told Me, by Laura Dave.
The novel follows Hannah, whose husband of a year disappears, and how she must work with her standoffish teen stepdaughter to crack the case of who her husband really is — or was.
Jenna Bush Hager picked Great Circle, by Maggie Shipstead.
The book tells the story of Hadley, a modern-day day actress who becomes absorbed into her latest movie role: that of daredevil aviatrix Marian, who lived (and disappeared) nearly a century ago.
"Now, more than ever, I love reading about women who chart their own courses," Hager said in announcing her Read With Jenna book club pick.
Good Morning America chose Olympus, Texas, by Stacey Swann.
The novel describes the upheaval for the Briscoe family — and their entire small town — that occurs after the black-sheep son returns from two years of exile.
You can read an excerpt of Olympus, Texas in GMA's announcement of its choice.
