A first look at a book cover is always pretty huge for an author; now Savannah Guthrie is giving us a look at that “moment.”
On Jan. 25, the TODAY co-anchor let her Instagram fans share the intimate moment of seeing her book for the first time, all while her family was away.
“OK, everyone says this is a moment, and actually, I happen to be all by myself,” Savannah says at the clip’s start featured in her post. “And I got this, so I’m just taping it for myself and maybe the internet, but I just got the actual book.”
Savannah captioned her post with a stream of yellow emojis, a nod to the color of her book’s cover and wrote, “when you see your book for the first time.”
A follow-up post of the book shared by Savannah gave fans a better look at what to expect. A black-and-white picture of the co-anchor appears on the front of the book’s page, which features the subtitle “Reflections on Seeking and Finding His Love Everywhere.”
“OK, people, we have an actual, real, honest-to-goodness book!” Savannah captioned the second post. “Guess this is really happening! And how cute that the slipcover can double as a bookmark!!
“Thanks for all the kindness, encouragement,” her post continued with instructions on how to preorder her book ahead of its February release.
The co-anchor announced her upcoming faith-based book, “Mostly What God Does,” in November. It will debut next month.
