Actress Reese Witherspoon is among the thriller authors: together with writer Harlan Coben, she implements an idea for a novel. The book is scheduled to be published in fall 2025.
Actress Reese Witherspoon’s first novel is scheduled to be published in the USA and Germany in autumn 2025. This was announced by Goldmann Verlag, based in Munich. It is a thriller that was created in collaboration with bestselling author Harlan Coben (62, “Nothing Rests Forever”). The book is based on an idea from 48-year-old Witherspoon, and Coben contributed his “expertise and experience” in the genre.
“As a huge fan of Harlan’s work, I can’t believe he agreed to write a book with me. Either I’m the most convincing person in the world or the idea for this book is just too good! Maybe both?” Witherspoon wrote her Instagram channel about the news. Coben commented on the post: “Let’s go, partner.”
In the USA, the still untitled thriller is published by Grand Central Publishing (GCP). Goldmann is already publishing Coben’s books in Germany. For Witherspoon it is the first novel, but not her first book: she has already written several children’s books and a lifestyle guide with personal anecdotes (“Whiskey in a Teacup: What Growing Up in the South Taught Me About Life, Love and Baking Biscuits “).
In her book club, Reese’s Book Club, the Oscar winner always presents stories that focus on women – many of which became bestsellers thanks to celebrity recommendations.
