The New York Times Best Sellers

The New York Times Best Sellers list ranks the top-selling books in the United States each week, based on sales data from various retailers. It provides a snapshot of the most popular books across different categories, such as fiction, nonfiction, children’s books, and more. The list is influential for authors, publishers, and readers, helping to highlight trending titles and gauge book industry shifts. While it reflects sales trends, it doesn't necessarily measure overall reader satisfaction or quality, but it remains a key indicator of a book's commercial success and cultural impact.
