best-selling book

A best-selling book is one that has sold a very high number of copies compared to other books during a certain period. These books often gain widespread popularity, either because of their compelling content, strong marketing, or cultural relevance. Being a best-seller can help the book reach a larger audience, influence popular culture, and often signifies a high level of public interest or demand. Lists like The New York Times or Amazon track these sales rankings regularly, highlighting books that resonate most with readers worldwide.
