‘God of the Woods’ book sales skyrocket after Taylor Swift docuseries highlights popular thriller
Disney
Call it the Swift Effect.
Book sales for Liz Moore’s “God of the Woods” skyrocketed over the weekend after the pop star was heard listening to the popular thriller on her new documentary series, “The End of an Era.”
Reps for Penguin Random House tell Page Six that the daily sales of all formats, including hardcover, paperback and audiobook, tripled after eagle-eyed bookworms identified the book she was reading.
The best-selling book, which came out in 2024, follows the disappearance of a young girl from an Adirondacks summer camp in 1975 and the unraveling of long-buried family secrets that surface during the search for her.
In the short clip, Swift is seen laying on a couch ahead of her London Eras Tour concert listening to the audiobook.
“Woke up this morning to a DM explosion,” Moore wrote on Instagram after the first two episodes dropped last Friday. “Thank you Swifties for your sharp eyes and ears and love of reading.”
The “Karma” singer previously shared her love of audiobooks on “Late Night with Stephen Colbert.”
“It’s always a different one. As soon as I finish one, I’ll start a new one,” she said.
Swift’s docuseries will continue to air on Disney+, with the next two episodes dropping on Friday.
