Former Vice President Kamala Harris has announced the release of her upcoming memoir, a book recounting her 2024 presidential campaign. Titled 107 Days, the memoir will detail Harris’s experience during her brief but high-stakes campaign. The book will be published by Simon & Schuster on September 23.

The title 107 Days refers to the critical period following President Joe Biden’s decision to step down from the presidential race, which led to Harris becoming the Democratic nominee. The memoir offers a candid look at the pivotal moments that defined her historic journey.

Harris officially became the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee in August. In the general election, she secured 226 Electoral College votes, while Donald Trump won with 312 votes.

The book’s announcement comes just a day after Harris revealed she will not be running for California governor. In her statement, she emphasized her continued commitment to leadership and public service—just not in elected office.

Harris’s presidential run was one of the shortest campaigns in modern American history. 107 Days is expected to reflect her vision for America and the personal and political challenges she faced during the campaign.

Harris was the first Black and South Asian person to hold the office of Vice President. She is also the author of two previous books: The Truths We Hold: An American Journey and Superheroes Are Everywhere.

Speaking about the memoir, Harris shared on her X account, “What the world saw on the campaign trail was only part of the story. My new book is a behind-the-scenes look at my experience leading the shortest presidential campaign in modern history.”

As Harris turns the page to the next chapter of her career—one outside of elected office—she continues to shape and refine her political legacy.
