Bookmarked by Reese's Book Club

This month’s Book Club Live is an extra special one — and thanks to our friends at Apple Books, we’re unlocking this full conversation for free as a gift to our entire community!
Our September Book Club pick, Big Little Truths by Liane Moriarty, is the sequel to Big Little Lies (starring our book-lover-in-chief, Reese Witherspoon, in the TV series adaptation). Ten years later, we catch up with the women as they navigate teenage kids, new drama, and old secrets threatening to resurface. Moderated by Reese’s Book Club alum Laura Dave, author of The Last Thing He Told Me and The First Time I Saw Him, this conversation is just as juicy and thrilling as Liane’s novels. Watch on Substack or listen to the full replay above!

This week, we’re bringing you inside our recent live recording in NYC, hosted by Apple Books and Reese’s Book Club.
