Oprah's Book Club
Oprah's Book Club is a reading series launched in 1996 by television host Oprah Winfrey, featuring books she selects and recommends to her audience.
Selection virtually guarantees bestseller status and can resurrect forgotten titles or launch unknown authors into prominence.
The phrase has become shorthand for mainstream literary success with broad popular appeal: That novel is total Oprah's Book Club material.
