“When someone asks why you haven’t returned their calls, blame our July [Reese’s Book Club] pick The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller,” the caption to Witherspoon’s official Instagram for her book club read. The novel is described by the book club as “an unbelievably absorbing read that’s raw, emotional and worth spending some quality time with. Come for the beachy Cape Cod setting, stay for the love triangle and gripping story of a family surrounded by secrets.⁠⁠”
