Celebrity book clubs have released their picks for August 2026. 

Reese Witherspoon selected The Wild Beneath by Kelly Anderson.

The novel follows Annie, torn both between her first love and a mysterious stranger, as well as between her past life on the sea and a staid life on shore.

Jenna Bush Hager picked Sunlight Finds You by Laura Moriarty.

The book tells the story of how the seeming betrayal of her teenage sweetheart dramatically upends Nora's entire world, beginning but not ending with an estrangement from her family.

Good Morning America chose Take What You Can by Naima Coster.

It's the story of Val and Milly, who bonded during a study-abroad trip, then reunite after a decade apart, which at first seems to be a dream come true ... but forces them to confront a shared secret from their past.

You can read an excerpt of Take What You Can in GMA's announcement of its selection.
