Tia Mowry's chic library, located in her room (a dream!), is filled with a variety of books alongside her "shrine of accomplishments," as seen in Marie Claire’s latest episode of Shelf Portrait (opens in new tab), where celebrities, influencers, and famous bookworms invite us inside their homes to show off their personal libraries.
Mowry proudly has her first book, Oh, Baby! (opens in new tab), displayed on her shelf, as well as candles, flowers, sage, and pictures. In the video, she reveals her five favorite books of all time are James Frey's A Million Little Pieces (opens in new tab) (everybody is struggling with something in their life and this books speaks to that), Rhonda Byrne's The Secret (opens in new tab) (she says it changed her life!), Don Miguel Ruiz's The Four Agreements (opens in new tab) (it gave her so much wisdom), Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist (opens in new tab) (it's all about looking for the signs), and Elizabeth Gilbert's Eat Pray Love (opens in new tab) (the ultimate lesson that women can create their own journey).
The actress and author would also love to see her and her sister's book, Twintuition (opens in new tab), turned into a movie (maybe even on the Disney Channel!), and the childhood book she loved growing up was Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham (opens in new tab).
Watch Mowry's full Shelf Portrait video above, then order some of her favorite books for yourself, below.
