Calling all t(w)eens and the young at heart! Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club just released their Spring 2025 YA pick, and you’re going to want to be on high alert for this one. “This novel is your next can’t-miss read: unexpected alliances, sharp wit, and incredible plot twists,” the celebrity book club said when they chose Heiress Takes All.
The YA book is the first in a series by Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka. It follows 17-year-old Olivia Owens who isn’t happy about her dad’s infidelity, the way he left her and her mom high and dry, and the way he cut her out of her inheritance.
But this former heiress isn’t going to let his actions slide.
So while hundreds of guests gather for her dad’s next marriage, she will steal millions. Despite the best efforts of nosy guests, Olivia has a motley crew and a plan to pull off this high-stakes heist while her dad says, “I do” and his new wife agrees to “for richer or poorer.”
Add in a dash of romance and intrigue, and it’s no wonder the Book Club says this novel is “sure to keep you up all night reading.”

Because who could stop flipping through [or listening to] such a thrilling page-turner?
And if you, dear reader, think you have outgrown the Young Adult section of the library, or are simply shopping for a young adult in your life, don’t be fooled. This book might be appropriate for and geared toward t(w)eens, but that doesn’t mean adults can’t enjoy it too. In fact, like all of Reese’s YA picks, it would make a great book to read alongside your t(w)een.
Readers across retailers had rave reviews for the story.
“This a must-read and add to any collection for teens!” one Amazon shopper said. ” … With the excitement, intrigue, suspense, shifting alliances, and twists and turns, readers will be staying up late … Give this to readers who loved Thieves’ Gambit, are fans of mystery and suspense, or like a fast-paced read.”
Others said it’s great for fans of Ocean’s Eleven, Gossip Girl, and The Inheritance Games. Because what do you get when you add up glitz, glam, secrets, and drama?
“JUST PLAIN FUN!” said one Barnes & Noble reader.
And guess what, when you finish up this heist, you will have a second waiting in the wings. Wibberley and Siegemund-Broka also wrote Heiress Among Thieves, an astounding follow-up novel where Olivia travels to her family’s Swiss castle. What was supposed to be a fun vacation — with a side of thievery — quickly spirals when a rival thief, a love triangle, and a murder suspect enter the chat.
It’s safe to say you’ll be kept up all night (and on your toes!) once again.
