I don’t know if this was discussed already but what are some fictional novels that were written by celebrities?
I have talked about The English Roses by Madonna before and how I thought they were terrible so, of course they’re note those for me.
Instead, my two favorites are a tie between The Magic Misfits by Neil Patrick Hariss and The Land of Stories by Chris Colfer as despite them being about different things as one is about magic tricks and the other about fairy tales, they both have characters that go on fun adventures, meet crazy characters and full of character development that leaves you hooked wondering what will happen next and touched as there moments that can even touch your heart.
Also, what’s quite interesting as both books are written by well-known LGBTQ actors and in The Magic Misfits, there is a character called Leila who is the adopted daughter of a gay couple, a magician named Mr. Vernon and his husband (of course), which was inspired by Neil himself as he is also a married gay man with kids, and they’re written pretty well.
Ergo, why The Magic Misfits and The Land of Stories are my favorite celebrity-written books, and since I love animation, I hope a good animation studio will animate these books to life into either great animated movies or TV shows.

Hugh Laurie, “The Gun Seller.”
As someone who extensively writes about pop culture I will tell you very little written under a celeb name is actually written by a celeb.
One book co-written by a celeb I did enjoy and got to talk to the celeb involved was The Two Georges written by Harry Turtledove and the actor Richard Dreyfus’s.
I just bought Murder on Sex Island by Jo Firestone, but have yet to read it.
