They're putting their celebrity influence to good use.

Kim Kardashian, 36, and Chrissy Teigen, 31, are starting a book club to promote reading to their fans.

'So guys….. @chrissyteigen & @jenatkinhair & I are starting a book club!' Kim tweeted to her almost 50 million followers.

Best friends read together: Kim Kardashian and Chrissy Teigen are starting a book club to promote reading for their fans.

She's so passionate about her new idea, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star replied to comments from fans who were asking questions about the club.

But apparently this isn't a book club about the latest and greatest literary hits.

Kim tweeted out her first suggestion, a book from 1992 that helped Kim get through her tough couple of months.

Hot nerd alert! The famous friends are encouraging their fans to hit the books

Follow the leader: 'I'm making them read 'Embraced By The Light' as our first book,' Kim explained on Twitter

Supportive friends: Chrissy is set to read the book Kim suggested as part of the club

'I'm making them read 'Embraced By The Light' as our first book,' she explained.

The famous friends are also partnering with their hairstylist pal Jen Atkins, who ostensibly will also be suggesting books to read for the club.

Kim then started trying to recruit more celebrities to join and read the book she says 'changed her life.'

'Hey @lala join the book club with @chrissyteigen , @jenatkinhair & I. This book is a life changer,' she wrote.

When fans started looking for details, she responded directly in the comments sections, saying: 'Everyone's invited!!!!….It's a story of a woman who died during surgery &came back 2 life. She shares her journey of what heaven is like. Its so good by @BettyJEadie'

Kim recently revealed she was 'enlightened' after talking to favorite author Betty J. Eadie.

The world-famous socialite, who remains less than four months removed from being tied up and robbed at gunpoint in an October 3 heist in Paris, was elated as she relayed her experience of talking with the New York Times bestselling author.

Soul searching: Kim said the book has helped her live her life 'in such a full way'

Huge plug: Writer Betty J. Eadie's work was exposed to a huge audience with Kim's endorsement

'Today was such a good day! I spoke to my favorite author @BettyJEadie This seriously made my soul smile! I feel so enlightened by our convo!' the Keeping up with the Kardashians star tweeted.

'I've read her book Embraced by the Light, that is about her near death experience & it's helped me live my life in such a full way.'

The longtime writer penned a 1992 tome called Embraced By The Light, which focused on the author experiencing 'the most profound near-death experience ever.'
