A brand new novel by Harlan Coben is coming this autumn and he’s teamed up with Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon.
As well as being an award-winning actress, Reese is also a New York Times bestselling author and the founder of Reese’s Book Club so this collaboration could truly be something special.
The book doesn’t have a name yet but is already available for pre-order here and is expected to land this October.
Announcing the news at the time with a snap of the two of them, Reese told her Instagram followers that she was excited to collab with Coben.
She penned: “I’m beyond excited to share that I’m co-writing my very first thriller with # 1 bestselling author, @harlancoben! As a massive fan of Harlan’s work, I can’t believe he agreed to co-author a novel with me. I’m either the most persuasive person alive or the idea of this book is just TOO GOOD! Maybe both ?? I honestly can’t wait for you all to read it! Pre-order now at the link in my bio.”
Harlan Coben responded to the post, writing: “Here we go, partner!!”
And fans couldn’t contain their excitement and flocked to the comments to beg for it to become a Netflix series.
One penned: ” Please please please make it a Netflix series.”
Another said: “That’s awesome. I love Harlan Coben’s novels. I’ve read all of them and watched all of the Netflix movies based on the books.”
One added: “Exciting! Everything he writes is gold! A colIab will be fierce! I hope the movie will come 2-3 yrs later too!”
While another added: “What??? Harlan AND Reese??? I need this in my life! Hurry up!!!”
