'Wild,' Oprah's Book Club Pick, Tops New York Times' Best Sellers List (VIDEO)

WATCH: Oprah's Still Got It

Oprah's still got it.

The former queen of daytime re-launched her book club in June, and her first pick — “Wild" by Cheryl Strayed — just topped the New York Times' best sellers list for the second consecutive week.

Back in June, she credited the book with inspiring her to revive the group. The memoir documents Strayed's 1,100 mile hike up the Pacific Crest Trail. "I was like, 'where is the Oprah Winfrey show when you need to announce and tell everybody about this book?" Oprah said.

She recently invited Strayed to her California home as part of OWN's "Super Soul Sunday" series. The two spoke about the author's life, including the end of Strayed's marriage, her mother's death to cancer and other events that led her to embark on her journey.

The author also said she was "astonished" when Oprah called her about the book, according to a statement about the interview."It was not a call I was expecting, and I will always remember her kind words about 'Wild,'" Strayed said.

The two-hour interview airs on OWN on Sunday, July 22 at 11 a.m.
