If you need a good beach read, you're in luck: Jimmy Fallon just launched his Fallon Book Club Summer Reads for 2024.

How to Watch

Watch The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on NBC weeknights at 11:35/10:35c and next day on Peacock

"We started with hundreds of books and narrowed them down to six," The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Host said on July 22 when he announced the latest edition of the Fallon Book Club. "I have not read any of these. But we're going to vote on which one we want to read together based on the title, cover, and description of the book, and that will be our official book for our Summer Reads Fallon Book Club."

"You have three days to vote — because on Thursday's show, we're going to announce the winner of our Summer Fallon Book Club, and then we'll all read it together," Fallon explained to the audience after reading the description of each release.

The Fallon Book Club originally debuted in 2018 as the "Tonight Show Summer Reads." Fallon previously brought back his Book Club in the spring, this time with a March Madness twist. Viewers voted on the 16 titles in competition, and in the end Nightwatching by Tracy Sierra was ultimately chosen as the Spring Book Club pick.
