Americans' FAV Books Ever : Bible,Harry Potter and GWTW
Unsurprisingly, the Harry Potter books frequently crop up on lists of favorite books, and a new top ten list of favorite books conducted by Harris, a research firm, is no exception
The “good book” is still America’s favorite book, according to a new Harris poll.
The research firm surveyed 2,300 American adults aged 18 and over and asked them: What’s your favorite book of all time? The Bible was the top choice across all ages, regions, political parties, and levels of education. Gone With the Wind followed in second place, with the Harry Potter series, the Lord of the Rings series, and To Kill a Mockingbird rounding out the top five. The full top 10 are:
1. The Bible
2. Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell
3. Harry Potter (series) by J.K. Rowling
4. The Lord of the Rings (series) by J.R.R. Tolkien
5. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
6. Moby Dick by Herman Melville
7. The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
8. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
9. The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
10. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
The last time Harris conducted this poll was 2008, when the top two favorite books were also the Bible and Gone With the Wind. (Harry Potter Was Also In TOP 4 )
However, four classic reads are new to the list in 2014: Moby Dick, Little Women, The Grapes of Wrath, and The Great Gatsby.
