How Reese’s Book Club Makes Millions by Adapting Books into Movies
Google Reese Witherspoon’s net worth, you find a staggering $440 million. How did the Legally Blonde actress transition from a beloved movie star to a savvy businesswoman? And how does a seemingly innocent book club play a much larger role in her strategy than we might think?
Central to this transformation is her creation of Reese’s Book Club and her media company, Hello Sunshine. This video delves into how Witherspoon has built an intricate ecosystem that leverages her book club to identify and adapt compelling stories into successful films and TV series, targeting a dedicated audience and achieving remarkable financial success.

thoughts on the movie?
If they kill Tairn I’ll be pissed
How is it that everything is a problem
i get that, but this one definitely IS a problem
It feels like 80% of new books are cheesy romance novels. Some aren’t really distinguishable. It’s sad because I grew up reading and love novels. Thanks to the changing trends I turned to classics, history and more „mature“ books aimed at older readers. Fortunately here in Germany there is a quite active literature culture completely independent from the trends.
For sure! It's hard to find more different types of books as they usually aren't spotlighted. So there's more work on our end to research and find them.
This is what turned me off of writing for money. You basically no matter how you get published are depending on marketing yourself and if you don’t Go Viral, you can forget it. Which means that you can’t keep a day job and break even on the costs of writing and editing and so on. You have to take a second job marketing yourself and your books on top of writing every day and writing 2000 words at that. It’s no longer art, it’s a small business, and I tell people that all the time - don’t bother writing a book unless you’re ready and willing to work 70 hours a week on being successful and being a celebrity pushing social media, don’t start. It’s not a hobby, it a business, and you better be able to do it yourself or you’ll go broke trying.
Interesting take. Authors can't just rely on publishers to market their book. Its not enough just to get in bookstores anymore. I've seen heaps of more self-publishing happening because people can just market themselves. The landscape has changed for sure. Running a business is hard, and it's not for everyone.
@@BookClubbers traditional publishing will do *some* marketing. But not very much, and they very much expect that you will be doing marketing yourself.
@@BookClubbers it’s not just that they can market themselves, but that either way they have to. The trad publishers do less and less for new authors, and so those authors are stuck with the task of marketing either way.
No finally writers get easy marketing and actually sales for their books. Unlike actual shit you don't need. Don't hate. Creatives already have it hard as is. Be happy for someone else for once. 😅
There’s no hate at all? it’s a really nuanced topic. You’re right in that BookTok provides much-needed marketing opportunities, which is a positive. I’ve read heaps of booktok books myself! But dismissing the complexities of the issue, such as the risk of all books starting to feel the same and the marginalisation of diverse books getting published. The ultimate goal is to find a balance where both trend-following and non-trend-following creatives can thrive 🙌 ☺️
Good writers can't get their books sold at all anymore because all people care about is spice level and whether it aligns with certain tropes that booktok wants to recycle over and over again. How on earth is this helping authors, except the few sellouts who just want to get rich off of the trend?
your comment reflects on how dumb you are considering you're a reader who only consume books worse than wattpad quality 😂
Btw, would love to have a longer video on this, you did a great job!
Thank you!! 🙏
So glad, someonse said it! Also the pressure for an author to publish one book a year is just bullshit, I would rather wait two years and get good quality than have one book a year (yes, there are exceptions like George R. R. Martin, but my point still stands)
Quality over quantity! Who knows if he’ll ever finish the series 🤣
Very insightful
Thank you!
Thank goodness someone said it! I hope literature publications shift to an award-based or contest system.
We’ll have to wait and see!
might happen on small scale/ niche, but wont happen on mass market. Mass produced books need massive consumers to keep the engine running
❤❤❤
☺️☺️
Nice work.
Thanks!
So publishing industry's have turned into the music industry. Great. Smfh 🤦
It's all about making the most money!
@@bradfordwilson4742 Fr fr. It's honestly more like the film industry in my opinion. All about meeting the criteria over quality. Like, Disney has a Queer quota they need to meet. Similarly, books these days have a Queer quota they need to meet too. Especially in fantasy books. And while I, a Queer person, appreciate the representation... I would like books that have QUALITY over criteria. Straight fiction that has a proper storyline, is better than woman x woman with just smut. Money comes from quality. Not quantity. The industry needs to learn that.
No the rooftop is where they first met that's not when they first met the sister don't know that they know each other she introduced them to each other are rooftop in Boston's where they first met do you get the Taylor Swift song
Oh yes! The way the trailer seemed, I thought perhaps they changed it a little :P Excited for the movie though and seeing how it turns out
It ends with us lily bloom was so happy to open her flower shop That's Ryle's sister he first came to the shop because Lily broke her ankle and him and his friend came to assist that's when they saw each other for the second 😮 time
Taylor Swift did a damn good job with this song 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 🩷 🩷 🩷 🩷 🩷 🩷 🩷 🩷 🩷 and I'm glad she is the one that sung it
It's a lot of parts that's going to be traumatic that they had in the book we don't know if we're going to see in the movie but Blake lively is going to bring Lily's character really to life 🧬🧬
Yes I am so excited 🥳🥳to see this movie Colleen Hoover is such an intelligent author🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thats a nicce video! I wish you the best in this channel!!
thank you!
First one in the comment section for once (love having Aussie RUclipsrs I can watch and upload in the same time-zone as me). And this video is so true. Every book I have read that has recently come out has sounded exactly the same. No story. Just $mut. Nothing changes! Good books take TIME AND CARE to write.. but with authors being told they need to publish a book by a set date, the quality of these books have reduced immensely. $mut is easy to write, and when you have page number quotas to meet.. the fastest way to meet that requirement, is writing long, detailed $mutty scenes, and pay little attention to creating an actual story. But that just gives you a bad, boring book. BookTok doesn't help either. I've seen shorts on RUclips (reposts of BookTok videos) which give over-the-top book reviews which really exaggerate how good a book is, and shorts that are supposed to help give writers inspiration for their stories. This just results in authors thinking they don't need to put much effort into their works because these reviews hype up their work so much, and fail to point out the issues with it. And authors use these writing inspo videos to understand what their audience wants as well, which doesn't leave room for originality because writer has taken someone else's idea, and used it as their own. Take a look at Sarah J. Maas' _Throne Of Glass_ for example, she wrote that using her own ideas and didn't let anything or anyone else influence her writing. The series was AMAZING!!!!! And very unique as well. I'd never read anything like it! But then ACOTAR and CC came along, and they are exactly the same: $mut with very little actual plot. Because that is what BookTok says is what readers want. It's not. It's just what people who have nothing better to do besides post on BookTok want. Anyway, that's my rant. Thank you for reading (if you actually read the whole thing.. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't though lol). And thanks for the video! Please make more like this, and on other BOOKS!!!! Not _Bridgerton_ lol.. I want the book stuff hehe.
Hello fellow Aussie! haha We love a good rant. I've definitely seen people comment that there is so much smut these days. I think there are book content creators that do suggest niche books, but they are going to be hard to find over the "viral" tik toks that are most likely to pop up on your feed. Saying this I also experience FOMO, and wish to read what everyone is reading >.< So it's about finding that balance and giving both popular books and more obscure books a read. haha! This is very new channel, so experimenting with what people want. Thank you for your feedback!! This helps a lot

"I think she might be popular author" 😂
WOOWW!!
I kinda want Alma Coin to come into the picture as a young adult
Looked so fun!
It was so much fun!! I just wish she could’ve spilled more tea on Onyx Storm LOL
Wow she really filled up the place!
I love Happy Place, so keeping my fingers crossed that it’ll be a successful adaptation 🤞🤞
We’ll have to wait and see 👀👀
What if next season was Francesca. Would serve the time jump and would allow for the set up both Ben and Eloise
Perhaps! But i feel she is so new still, but it actually would work with the time jump! We’ll have to wait 2 years to find out 😭
Due To The Fact The Entire Message Of This Book Is Propaganda And Control, I Feel Like It Will Be A Career And Game Maker-Centric POV. The Many (The 48 Tributes) Are Controlled By The Few (The Game Makers) I Have A Hunch That The Gams Maker Will Be Plutarch And We'll See Why He Becomes The Person We See In Mockingjay. He Probably Becomes The D12 Mentor Probably Appointed By Snow, And He Starts To Get Along With The D12 Tributes He Starts To Be Empathetic For The Tributes And Slowly Starts To See The System As Wrong, We Will Probably See Other POVS Katniss' Mom, Katniss' Dad ETC. But I Feel Like The Career Female And The Game Maker Will Be The Main Point Of The Whole Book.
If this were to be the case I would be 100% up for it! Everyone is saying it's going to be a Plutarch POV.
I am almost sure the book will be from Plutarch's POV while he is a Gamemaker. I don't think he will be the head gamemaker
This is super popular theory!
Honestly I Suzanne wants to write another book after this I think it shouldn't just be about Finnick but District 4 itself that tells us about career pov and tells the story of Maggs,Finnick and Annie all together.
I am all for this 100%!! Career POV would be fascinating and how they compete with each other prior to the reaping because they want to be a tribute?
Well not me. I didn’t get the covid vaccine
Can’t wait to see if any of these theories are true in two years time 🤪
2 years time is a crime 😭
I honestly think it’s ok to bookbind fan fictions, especially if they are very long and high quality, for example All the Young Dudes by MsKingBean89 and the James Potter Series by G Norman Lippert. I’d bloody love to have physical copies of those. Of course credit should be given to the authors and permission sought though.
It’s utterly idiotic. It’s a very dark story written in a very mature fashion. Like the final 2 books are extremely violent, describing full on warfare, and even JK Rowling herself intended for each book to be read by people the same age as Harry in that book. To say it’s just a kids story is utterly ludicrous and I’m honestly quite surprised I was even allowed to read the last 2 books before I was out of primary school.
I will buy it because I like the Character of Heymitch and I watched the all movies I love The Panham Universe but I have never read that saga, That book could be the first and I will to play him but it's just a Dream 🤣🤣
maybe everything that happened in the arena was a lie and Haymitch was never supposed to win the game. who knows
That is actually so true!! They can easily manipulate the footage like erasing Lucy grey completely
Hugs
Yo
I hope we get careers (nor Real)/ haymitch (Real) dual POV
I think a careers POV would definitely be an interesting angle!
Fascinating. I see this differently. I loved the pacing and finish. Didn’t coast for me. Just didn’t speedrun into a crazy finish. Lovely book overall.
For sure! That’s why I think it will just depend on what you enjoy ☺️ but as an overall book it was very good!! So enjoyable
I'm intrigued on the word "sunrise" usually that's a little more of a positive take. So it makes me wonder if it's going to be through the pov of someone who has more positive feelings towards the game. If not, the sunrise could simply be in reference to this particular hunger games as a "new beginning". Either way I guess we'll have to see.
It’s hard to say but I definitely think it’s a symbol for something! As we know based on her other titles 🤔
Hoping this is better than the crappy Netflix version and actually stands up to the original films ❤
My personal theory is that it might actually be from a career’s perspective and/or their family.
I was actually thinking this myself 🤔
Tigris and Maggs both play a major role in this book. Tigris will be Haymitch’s stylist, and the things she does to encourage Haymitch is the final nail in her relationship with Snow. I feel that it’s not an accident that Haymitch speaks so kindly of Maggs in Catching Fire. She made a profound impact on him, perhaps as a surrogate mentor because 12 doesn’t technically have an available winner? There will be many Easter eggs as it pertains to Katniss’ mom and dad.
Yes I was thinking this! Because who was Haymitch mentor because there’s no winners from district 12 (aside from Lucy but she’s gone and forgotten)
I don’t think Tigris will be haymitch’s stylist because in catching fire, it was mentioned that Haymitch and the other district 12 tributes are dressed in terrible coal miner outfits-I doubt Tigris would ever dress her tributes in something that bad
I do think we'll probably see Katniss' mum.
I think if it’s not a split pov it might be a game maker that thinks the games are wrongs pov
I think POV from a game maker would be interesting!
I would love a story from Haymitch AND Snows perspective 😍
It would be so cool right!? 🤞
I also had a theory they might do a split pov because if she really wants to add perspective it doesn’t make sense looking at haymitch alone
My thoughts exactly based off her words 🤔 we’ll have to wait and see
I personally think that we are not getting Haymitchs POV because we know almost everything from his games already and especially since Collins said where she got her inspiration from I think Haymitch won't be the main focus. My theory is that it will either be Mace Lee Donna's sister, because she is Matchs mother and also a friend of Katnisses mother. So we would get a lot of backstory. Or (my ideal theory) it will be from Plutarchs perspective. First of all it would be really interesting to see his change from rich, capitol boy (and I mean he was one of the old names of the capitol as we know thanks to Songbirds and Snakes) to one of the main forces of the revolution. It would also fit within the whole "propaganda and how the few control the many" stuff that Collins mentioned. And we would maybe get to know more about district 13 and how he got in contact to them. I do think that Haymitch will also be important but maybe in the sense of like, he changed Plutarchs view of the games or something like that. Either way, I am really excited to see what Collins will write. 😊 Also sry if my English isn't the best, its not my first language!
I love that theory! I definitely think a Plutarch POV would be interesting 🤔 maybe it’s more going to go quick through the games then explore perhaps the developing friendship between Plutarch and Haymitch? And more on the mentoring part and that’s how Plutarch meets Haymitch 🤔 honestly there’s so many directions you can take it and watch Suzanne Collin’s do something completely left field 😂
@@BookClubbers yeah that's also something that came to mind. Because technically speaking we already know what happens in the games. So it would make more sense to focus on the stuff that happens around the games or after the games. For example what exactly happened to Hamitchs family, the contact between him and Plutarch and so on.... But you are also right, she could also surprise us with something we wouldn't expect at all! :)
It could be that Plutarch found Snow sent Jobberjay of Sejanus’ voice and wanna use that to blackmail Snow later
I already have it preordered
Yes! It feels such a long time till it comes though. We’ll have to be patient 😭
@@BookClubbers I’m such an impatient person 😭😭😭 haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since I found out
