Lauren Conrad's Book Club Is Reading A YA In June

by Emma Oulton

I'm obsessed with celebrity book clubs, from Emma Watson's feminist Our Shared Shelf to Reese Witherspoon's Instagram suggestions, so I don't know how I missed this — but Lauren Conrad has a book club. I didn't know it was possible to love the former The Hills star even more, but this just about does it. Chatting books with LC is pretty much my teenage dream come true.

All the details of the book club are up on Lauren Conrad's lifestyle blog, but here's everything you need to know: The book selection for June is The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Maston, and the first book club "meeting" will be on June 13th. The Unexpected Everything is about Andie's chaotic summer: she loses her internship, ends up sharing a house (and actually getting along) with her dad — and of course, there's a surprise romance in there for her as well.

It sounds like the perfect summer read, and if it's got Lauren Conrad's endorsement, then it's going in my suitcase. To join in, read the first nine chapters before June 13th, and then hop over to LC's blog to follow the Q&A session. At the end of the month, there'll be a Twitter chat for everyone to join in.

Lauren Conrad is the author of several books herself, ranging from lifestyle and party tips to a juicy fiction series, so she's definitely got the literary credentials to host a brilliant book club. I can't wait to read along with her.
