Favorite Thing
On Sunday night at the Golden Globes, Oprah Winfrey became the first black woman to accept the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement. Her speech not only brought the entire room to their feet, but it was also one of solidarity, giving validation and hope to those who’ve tried to speak and were shut down.

While most of the press is talking about a potential Oprah 2020 presidential campaign, here at BookTrib we are talking about the woman and her love of literature! The Original Oprah’s Book Club launched in 1996, and ran for 15 years, ending in 2011— right before the final episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show and the launch of Oprah’s Book Club 2.0, the digital version, which provides access to her book club for even more people, all over the world.
Each year, Oprah comes out with a list of her ‘favorite things,’ and this year, we’ve got our own list: BookTrib’s Favorite Thing About Oprah! So what exactly is our favorite thing about Oprah Winfrey? Her love of books! We love that Oprah wants every child and adult to have a life full of wonder and learning through literature. Her commitment to literacy programs in addition to her book clubs and the recommended reads she’s given over the years have helped keep books alive in ways no other media mogul has. Not only Oprah a lifelong reader, she’s also an accomplished author. Here, we have married Oprah’s love of books with our favorite thing about Oprah to bring you this list of 12 books by or about Oprah.
