Happy Saturday, book friends! It’s been another long week as we round out the semester at the university where I work, but the end is in sight. You can feel people prepping to shift into late December holiday mode. I feel like those same vibes are a little bit there in the book world, too.

This week in Book News Corner, I’ve got a little sampling of book news greatest hits — adaptation news, big celebrity memoir announcements, and reading challenges for the new year. Let’s dive in!

First Look at Daisy Jones & The Six TV Adaptation

On December 6th, Vanity Fair published an exclusive sneak peek at the upcoming TV adaptation of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s wildly popular Daisy Jones & The Six. The series has officially wrapped filming and is set to premiere on Amazon Prime Video on March 3rd, 2023.

I still haven’t read this book given that stories about music and muscisions aren’t really my jam, but I had a feeling this news would be of interest to some of my readers and I didn’t want you to miss it!
