Disappointing Debut: "Gone Before Goodbye" Falls Flat
Reese Witherspoon, a world-renowned actress, has led Reese's Book Club since 2017, promoting female authors and their works.
Some notable book club picks include Emily Henry's "Great Big Beautiful Life", R. Kuang's "Yellowface", and Celeste Ng's "Our Missing Hearts".
Witherspoon's new thriller novel, "Gone Before Goodbye", co-authored with Harlan Coben, tells the story of Maggie McCabe, a former Army surgeon who lost her medical license after a series of tragic events.
The story follows Maggie as she takes a lucrative yet secretive overseas job to help her sister out of debt.
"Gone Before Goodbye" is a collaboration between Witherspoon and best-selling author Harlan Coben, marking Witherspoon's first adult novel.
