December is typically a time to look back and assess the highlights of the past year. In keeping with this tradition, various magazines/newspapers/websites take out a list of the Best Books of 2014. I too will follow suit but with a difference. Below, I have included titles that have been the most popular books of the year, in that they have been featured in more than two lists. Some of the sites I have looked at are: The Guardian, The Book Beast, Oprah, Time, The Independent.
*How to Be Both by Ali Smith (probably the most popular book)
*The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell (a serious contender to Ali Smith's book in terms of popularity)
*Boy, Snow, Bird by Helen Oyeyami
*Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
*Us by David Nichols
*All the Light We Can See by Anthony Doerr
*Family Life by Akhil Sharma
*Lila:A Novel by Marilynne Robinson
*Redeployment by Philip Klay
*The Paying Guests by Sarah Waters
*The Empathy Exams by Leslie Jamison
