Reese Witherspoon Reveals September Book Club Pick & Calls It 'Breathtaking'

It’s officially September, which means cooler mornings, pumpkin-flavored everything, kids heading back to school and, of course, a fresh new pick from Reese’s Book Club to cozy up with.

As usual, Reese Witherspoon revealed this month’s selection via Instagram. The Morning Show star shared a sunny snapshot of herself perched on a crisp white and oak staircase, glowing in a cheerful yellow top, classic blue jeans and a brown belt (very fall-core), with her adorable pup Minnie Pearl lounging nearby.

"September’s @reesesbookclub pick is To the Moon and Back by @elianaramage," the caption of her September 2 post reads before teasing, "A breathtaking debut about family, identity, and love across generations."

To the Moon and Back tells the story of Steph Harper, who’s been on the run, physically and emotionally, since she was a kid. After escaping an abusive home with her mom and sister, the family lands in Cherokee Nation but Steph’s sights are set much farther: think NASA, the moon and a future that’s galaxies away from Oklahoma.

Spanning three decades and multiple continents, the book dives deep into Steph’s pursuit of purpose and distance, as well as the lives of the women closest to her, her sister Kayla (an artist turned Indigenous social media star), her college girlfriend Della (reckoning with identity and adoption) and her mother Hannah (whose past holds more secrets than she lets on). It’s a raw, powerful exploration of ambition, identity and what it means to carve out space for yourself.

If it sounds like a must-read, you’re not alone. The novel already has a solid four-star rating on Goodreads, with readers seriously obsessed.

"I’ve spent weeks trying to come up with the right words for this book. I loved it so much I took it everywhere with me. I literally read it between sets at the gym and took it into the sauna (my copy is WORN)," one fan shared.

Another wrote, "Aside from a few slower parts, this was an absolutely enthralling read. I loved how flawed and human each of the characters felt, which made it so easy to immerse myself in this book." And someone else kept it simple: "I loved this, it was excellent."

You can snag your copy of To the Moon and Back now on Amazon.
