Kamala Harris is preparing to launch her new book, which documents life behind the scenes during her historic presidential campaign. Titled 107 Days—in reference to its astonishingly short duration following Joe Biden’s decision to exit the race—it is set to be published by Simon & Schuster in September, and promises to be packed with “candor.” S&S CEO Jonathan Karp said Harris “addresses everything we would want her to address,” but did not offer any insight into whether this included her thoughts on Biden’s fitness for office, per AP. The former vice president, who ruled herself out of running for the 2026 California Governor race this week, announced the book via video on social media. “One hundred and seven days traveling the country, fighting for our future – the shortest presidential campaign in modern history,” she said. “Since leaving office, I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on those days, and with candor and reflection, I’ve written a behind-the-scenes account of that journey. I believe there’s value in sharing what I saw, what I learned, and what it will take to move forward.” Harris would have made history as both the first woman and the first woman of color to become president, but was ultimately defeated by Donald Trump in the 2024 election.
