Can't decide what to read this month? Reese Witherspoon's book club Hello Sunshine is my personal go-to for book recommendations, and the list includes everything from murder mysteries to heartbreaking memoirs and beautifully cheesy romance novels.

Reese's pick for April is Untamed by Glennon Doyle. The emotional memoir tells the story of a woman who experiences longing, discontent, motherhood, and learns to be free with herself emotionally, spiritually, and physically. "This memoir is so packed with incredible insight about what it means to be a woman today, what did we learn as young girls about how to behave or believe, and why we need to free ourselves from a lot of these ideas that don't work anymore," Reese said in an Instagram post. "(Hot tip: Being 'selfless' is not the highest goal a woman can achieve!!) This book spoke to me so loudly and clearly . . . I swear I highlighted something in EVERY chapter." So, if you've got a case of reader's block and don't know where to begin, take a look at all of the star's past book club picks ahead. After all, you just might stumble across a new favourite.
