Reese: My Kingdom for Those Book Rights So I Can Make Movies

Well hello (sunshine)! Of course I couldn’t let this big news pass by without posting. Reese’s media company Hello Sunshine (of which her ever-popular book club is a part) has been sold to Blackstone and is valued at $900 million.

Books sure are booming business! JK. I don’t really have any commentary except for the fact that books written by women are now clearly seen as a hot commodity. “Like projects of Hello Sunshine’s past, its upcoming slate includes adaptations of popular novels—the film Where the Crawdads Sing and Amazon series Daisy Jones and The Six.”

How do you think this will affect the rest of the “literary ecosystem”? Will it? ☀️☀️☀️
