If you’ve ever wanted to be a part of a celebrity book club<\/a>, now is your chance!<\/p>\n

On The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/em>, host Jimmy Fallon<\/a><\/strong> revealed his five nominees for the show’s second-annual Summer Reads book club and asked fans to vote for which page-turner they want to be the official pick. Last year, Tomi Adeyemi<\/strong>‘s fantasy novel, Children of Blood and Bone,<\/em> was the selection after 140,000 votes were tallied<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Saturday Night Live<\/em> alum<\/a> narrowed down this year’s options to The Chain, Fleishman Is in Trouble, The Gone Dead,<\/em> The Silent Patient <\/em>and Ask Again, Yes<\/em>. The hilarious TV personality, who took home<\/a> the E! People’s Choice Awards<\/em> trophy for Nighttime Talk Show last year, handpicked each book himself and Steve Higgins<\/strong> noticed they all had a similar theme.<\/p>\n

“Are you OK? [These] seem a little murder-y,” joked his long-time announcer. <\/p>\n

“That’s what people want to read!” Fallon exclaimed back.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
