The audiobook of Eric Dane’s posthumous memoir is read by his on-screen son. Jacob Elordi narrates “My Book of Days: A Memoir in Moments”, which reaches shops and streaming platforms on 3 November, Page Six reported. The release comes about eight months after Dane’s death.
Why Elordi was chosen
Page Six describes the casting as a nod to Dane’s “profound” work on Euphoria. The two actors played father and son, Cal and Nate Jacobs, across all three seasons of the HBO series. The outlet does not say who made the choice or how the recording came together, so that detail remains unconfirmed.
The audiobook runs 5 hours and 53 minutes. Elordi shares the narration with Shriver, according to the same report.
What the memoir covers
Dane began writing in the months after his 2023 diagnosis and kept working on the book until he died on 19 February 2026, Page Six says. Rather than a straight chronology, the memoir is built from a series of “days”. Each one, per the official synopsis quoted by the outlet, illuminates “a defining experience or emotional truth”.
Those moments range from his early years in Hollywood and his road to sobriety to the experience of being diagnosed with ALS. The synopsis also points beyond his lifetime to “future days” written for his two daughters, meant for them to read and remember. The publisher’s blurb frames the book as a guide to “cherishing time itself”.
The author was best known for Grey’s Anatomy before Euphoria, as the Page Six report notes.
Shriver’s role
Shriver’s The Open Field imprint is publishing the book. When it was announced in the days after Dane’s death, she said she was “honored” that he chose her imprint. She added that he told her he wanted his family to know how much he loved them and to leave them a story they could be proud of, Page Six reports.
