Actress, model, and activist [Cara Delevingne](http://instyle.com/celebrity/cara-delevingne) is broadening her horizons by adding another title to her résumé: author. The 24-year-old announced on Tuesday that she wrote her debut novel, _Mirror, Mirror_, coming out in October 2017.

“Another pinch me moment!!” she wrote alongside a photo of herself holding up a proof of the book. “_Mirror, Mirror_ is a twisty coming-of-age story about sixteen year old friends Red, Leo, Naima, and Rose who are all trying to figure out who they are and navigate the minefield of school and relationships. Until it all changes one day …” she wrote.

“I love these characters so much, I love what they stand for, what this story represents. The process of putting this novel together has been life changing and something I hold really close to my heart!! I cannot wait to share with everyone!”

The book, which will be published by Trapeze Books, was [written](https://twitter.com/TrapezeBooks/status/841558356829601792) in coordination with author Rowan Coleman. It’s available for pre-order now on [Amazon](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mirror-Coming-Age-Friendship-Betrayal/dp/1409172740?tag=smarturl-gb-21), and like fellow actress [Emma Watson](http://www.instyle.com/celebrity/emma-watson), Delevingne hopes to start “one big virtual book club.”

“I want us to talk about this time in life, self discover, friendship, pain, triumph!! Being a teenager!! The experiences that shape YOU!”
