A Super-Packed Bookshelf Can Only Mean One Thing…

6-months and 50-ish books later, we’re ready for summer

If you told us 6-months ago, Reese’s Book Club would be over 2.1 million members strong… we probably wouldn’t have believed a word. Yet, here we are. Together, we’ve explored mysteries, investigated whodunits, and according to our most recent poll, crushed between 41-50 books each.

Before we dive into Club updates we wanted to give a shout out to Diana P., who finished 101 books/audiobooks as of June 9th. Diana says “The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapata, and by Angeline Boulley have been standouts for me so far.” If you see Diana in the Club Chats send her a fist bump and let’s keep reading, together.

On Friday, June 18th, we’ll be chatting together about all things royal teen romance through the end of Chapter 20, so if you’re not there yet…read away!

But How Does it End?
