The 10 Best-Selling Books of 2019, According to Amazon
This was a year for the books. Literally. Throughout 2019, authors published works that inspired us, challenged us, and also gave us an escape. We saw new work from legendary author Margaret Atwood, were floored by newcomer Casey McQuiston’s debut romance novel, Red, White & Royal Blue, and couldn't get enough of author and survivor Chanel Miller's triumphant memoir, Know My Name. Our TBR lists were long, and rich with incredible reading material.
As 2019 comes to a close, Amazon Charts takes a look back at some of their most popular titles of the year. The books that customers shopped the most. From Michelle Obama’s memoir, Becoming—which was the highest-selling work of nonfiction on the site—to Delia Owens’s New York Times–best-selling Where the Crawdads Sing.
Read on for the books that Amazon customers couldn’t get enough of. And consider giving your loved ones a break from the world for the holidays—through the power of the written word.
