What Each State is Reading


Last year Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid’s Tale was the top selling novel on Kindle in every state apart from Ohio and Utah. The states that read the most books, based on Kindle's most readers per state population, are nearly all northern states.

2017 - The Year in Books is an Amazon data visualization of the top selling fiction and non-fiction books in the USA last year. The visualization includes an interactive map which shows the ten states that read the most in the United States. The map also shows you the three most sold books in each state. If you click on a state on the map you can view the first, second and third most sold book in that state.

Amazon's data visualization also lists the top selling non-fiction books in the USA and the biggest selling audio books. It includes a look at the trends in book cover designs, the best selling translated books, the most 'wished for' books and the books which were given as presents the most times.
