"What Happened" chronicles Clinton's candidacy in the 2016 presidential election and her shocking loss to now U.S. President Donald Trump. The book is being described as "her most personal memoir yet" in recounting the surreal 2016 campaign."In the past, for reasons I try to explain, I’ve often felt I had to be careful in public, like I was up on a wire without a net," Clinton writes in the introduction to the book. "Now I’m letting my guard down."

Clinton will also sign attend a book signing at Greenlight bookstore in Brooklyn on Sept. 27.
