Celebrities are always giving main character energy, so it’s a no-brainer to browse the books they’re currently reading to foreshadow which ones are worth checking out.
Here at Deuxmoi, we know how much our community appreciates a vetted recommendation, so we’re cataloguing all the book titles your favorite celebs have posted about over the past couple of months to get a read on the most popular picks.
Apparently our love for YA fiction and the general fascination with nepo babies is shared by Eva Mendes and Selma Blair, who both scored early copies of “By Invitation Only,” the Alexandra Brown Chang novel about teens attending a debutante ball in Paris. Meanwhile, groom-to-be Benny Blanco brought celebrity trainer Harley Pasternak’s tome, “The Carb Reset,” to his Vegas bachelor party, which featured a bundle of bagels from Sadelle’s. Go figure!
