"This is The Tonight Show. You want to go to Stephen Colbert if you want to get people to read books. Lame! We do audible here."Hathaway burst out laughing, as did the audience, making the moment a little less awkward for everyone involved."The book is fabulous," the Mothers' Instinct star confirmed.Hathaway was left feeling awkward after realizing that the audience hadn't read the book her movie was based off of.
