In May, Miranda Lambert released her first book, a cooking book called 'Y'ALL EAT YET? Welcome to the Pretty B*tchin' Kitchen.' Miranda quickly became a New York Times best-selling author, landing at No. 3. Not long after, she returned to her hometown of Lindale, Texas, to sign copies of her first book. She said at the time, "All those faces, all the smiles, and some of the young women who I see myself in when I was their age… After a week of being in New York City and L.A., coming back to Lindale was the perfect way to wrap up this amazing run. We brought this book back to the very place its stories came from, and I got to share the celebration with the people who were so much a part of it."

Dolly teamed with bestselling author James Patterson on the fiction thriller. Set in Nashville, 'Run Rose Run' tells the story of a country singer who discovers the music industry can be just as heartbreaking as the secret she's carrying. Dolly told CBS when the book came out in March of 2022 that she hopes to get to play the lead character in a movie version of the book, which is being produced by Reese Witherspoon's Hello Sunshine. She noted that the story is similar to her own, "It shows a lot of the dark side of that – people that have been in it, like me, you know, because you've lived it."
