Also, some publishing companies will buy 10k copies of the book immediately so that it gets the title right away Comment from : Eldritch Teletubby

This quickly answered my question with no fuss, thank you very much :) Comment from : ChunchunmaruZcat

Bc NYT is shit Comment from : 10

I didn't know that but it makes sense Comment from : Sarah B

Selling 10k copies of a book with organic growth and marketing is actually a task, believe it or not (I work in the industry) But I will agree that hyper-specific niches water down the impact of best seller categories, looking at you Amazon and 50+ subgenres of Urban Fantasy Comment from : J S Elliot

Amazon is the same, lol! Comment from : JERRY RICHARDSON

This thing with humans and the THERE MUST BE ONLY ONE, mentality 😶 Comment from : Alpha Omega

"Because that totally makes alot of difference!" (Paperback/Hardcover) it definitely does when selling because I'd rather buy a paperback for $12 rather than a hardcover for $30 Comment from : Happier Thymes

participation trophy of publishing Comment from : Tech Explores NYC

I've been deceived Comment from : Bless Yie

WE BROKE GODS LAW 2000 YEARS AGO, GOD PROVIDED A SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST WHO SUFFERED AND TOOK OUR PUNISHMENT ON THE CROSS THE BIBLE SAYS IF WE DECLARE WITH OUT MOUTH JESUS IS LORD AND BELIEVE IN OUR HEART GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD YOU SHALL BE SAVED Romans 10-9 GOD WILL FORGIVE YOUR SINS AND GRANT YOU EVERLASTING LIFE ALL BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS Comment from : Micah 5:2

all the books are dubbed bestsellers except those really niche ones that are actually good :/ Comment from : sleepyfromstress

and why is every movie the #1 in America Comment from : Summer Fan

I only trust Amazon Bestsellers Comment from : Cutandgo

"they can't be all best sellers"brbrYou know people buy books, right Comment from : KyrieFortune

Even my shopping list could become a NT best seller Comment from : SERES DE LUZ

NYT best seller means nothing now Comment from : Hazel Cohen

10000 copies sold is no little amount of books 😅 Comment from : Kaz

the implication that there isn’t a huge difference between paperback or hard back books (there definitely is) Comment from : Shyanne Hayes

Thanks! Good to know! Comment from : JK Hegarty

Isn't new York times a meme like yeah let me read a newspaper about stuff I don't care about and that will never effect my life in anyway Comment from : “Brick squad”

lol who doesn’t know this Comment from : brodamerons

The only books I read Comment from : Khoa Doan

I wonder if it's the same thing as when movie critics ( or studios) call a certain movie "the number 1 movie in the world" for an advertisement for a movie that already came out Despite that not really being the truth Comment from : JustAnotherInternetWiseGuy

How to Be a Bawse: A Guide to Conquering Life is a book by YouTube personality Lilly Singh released on March 28, 2017 Her book is a New York Times bestseller Comment from : Arbiter

Jesus loves you—- Comment from : F1u1d

Most of the time they aren't even that good Comment from : TungstenWhizard

That genuinely makes a lot of sense Comment from : Balded One

The weird thing isbrbrI was thinking about this today morning Comment from : rithika

10,000 copies is a lot of copies sold and considered a commercial success If a stadium full of people are willing to buy a book, it gets my attention People who have marketed books know how hard that is Comment from : The Tributary

As a bookworm I can tell that hardback and paper back are huge differences! Paperbacks are usually floppier and easier to read without breaking the spine! They are also cheaper Hardbacks are sturdy and more expensive Hardbacks are also almost always taller than paperbacks so they can be harder to fit on a shelf I do agree though that every book is a New York Times Bestseller though Comment from : ItzZoZo Fashion

How many books are there totally Comment from : Pradyumn

Hardcovers and paperbacks have historically been different genres Now more “literary” works are being published as paperbacks, but before a “paperback” was seen as less literary Comment from : Itzhak

zero prestige or credibility now Comment from : Laur-un (stage name, actually called Faith)

Bruh 80 of the books I read aren't bestsellers how tf are you finding so many bestsellers Comment from : ZEST

There were some books that weren't that good and were titled as best sellers One that comes to my mind is The wrong family by Tarryn fisher Comment from : JQ

Seems like capitalism if failing in the book company Comment from : Vulcher

Thanks Comment from : Alex Rediger

Hardbacks and paperbacks have a huge difference Comment from : Ramayana Roxas

Seems like this is more for the author than the reader Comment from : Jordy G

A lot of what you’re saying is true but I think this would have been more factually presented if you had placed it in context You give away your lack of understanding the book market by your comments on hardcover vs softcover and the lack of context to the numbers That aside, ranking the books by genre allows for readers to find the popular books that suit their tastes Otherwise it would all be Thriller and Romance which outsell the other genres almost exponentially Comment from : Jae S

It's probably because the ones that actually make the list are the ones that get publicity so you don't tend to hear about the ones that aren't "bestsellers" Comment from : Mayo Agard-Olubo

Thank you I was wondering this the other day Comment from : MamaJo

😎 Comment from : Malika💜

weird that this is in my recommended I was looking at my book shelf today and had this exact question Comment from : Mols4999

Just for US books right? Comment from : Bel Rossy

The other reason it seems like all books are best sellers is because these are the more popular books, so you’re gonna be hearing about them and seeing them in bookstores more So it just seems like every book is a best seller, when in reality there are tons of books without this distinction that are not even available in the store Comment from : CharlotteModel

I mean how do you compare a fantasy novel to a marine biology reference book? You can't So it's actually logical to have different genre rankings The problem is the title needs more clarification than just "best" Comment from : Blah Smith

Jokes on them I can't read Comment from : DR4ST1C M34SUR3

Just a sales plug Comment from : John Jones

So it's not a good indicator Comment from : sweetmelon

Like Academy awards Oscars, they are there but nobody cares anymore Comment from : dan raz

It's about as useful as the Game of the Year editions of yore; any game publisher could slap that onto their game Comment from : Kapten Teo

Not to mention some authors are able to buy their way onto the list So something that ends up a best seller (this happens a lot with nonfiction, think political and religious books specifically) may not actually be very good It’s just the author can afford to buy many copies of their own book Comment from : MadMusic26

Check to see if they have a "dagger" or not A dagger means the title was claimed by bulk purchases inuding before release Comment from : Druid Zephyrus

Blah blah blah, it means nothing Comment from : Nate Rollin

We have the same phenomenon in Germany with "Spiegel Bestsellers", I always wondered why it is the way it is and this makes sense Comment from : Jana

All books are the best sellers all movies are the number one movie it's lies! all lies!!! Comment from : Loading

i thought it was already a well-known info specially the 10K copies detail 😂 Comment from : anne jia

I'd be more inclined to pick up a book if it had a "You tried" award on it Comment from : Declan

Because people want money and none of them work Lol Comment from : Cyn Hicks

Maybe it's best to not use arbitrary awards to determine what you want to read? Comment from : DoctorSantaPhD

Interesting informationbrJohn 3:3brJesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God brbrMark 1:15 - “The time is fulfilled,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near Repent and believe in the gospel!” Comment from : Amber Gem

I recently bought an NYT Bestseller I never had before, I'm in Germany and it's not such a common thing here to see that Anyway, the book was City on Fire, it's almost 900 pages long, I read it from beginning to end, and it's trash I hate it so much I'm never ever again buying anything from NYT Bestseller list Comment from : Martinab

Here in the UK, we have 'a Which? recommended product'brYou see it all the time in television ads, so I tried to do a little diggingbrTurns out, to get that sticker, you just have to be nominated by a customer, and the Ts and Cs say that employees of the company can nominate them as well! Comment from : Noah Talks Money

I mean, I know a booktuber that wrote a book and even before it’s realise it said it’s a ny bestseller on the cover i don’t understand it Comment from : Tessa F

The New York Times isn't worth the paper it's printed on these days so a book with that label doesn't do that much for me Comment from : thegrim418

FINALLY, someone is answering the important questions Comment from : Some Bicycle

its like how every movie is somehow 'the #1 movie in america' Comment from : Caleah

Lol I’ve always wondered about this Thanks ✌️ Comment from : Matthew Fodell

Omg I was wondering this for a long time 🤣 Comment from : Elsa john

As someone who loves books I can personally say hardback and softbacks should be taken accounted for Comment from : Fivey the fox

So every kid is a winner but for books? Comment from : PUNISHERMHS 2021

Why is this narrated like it's some big discovery? This is common knowledge Comment from : Alon Benach

Well, I don't know about books, but I look at it with what happened with the switch online best seller It wasn't about quality, but how well it sold I think it's gotten better over the years, but there was some bad games on there for awhile Comment from : Tresson Karu

(not knowing yet the ny times is corrupted propaganda)brngmi Comment from : Nah Bohdi

"And when everyone's super no one will be" - Syndrome, The Incredibles Comment from : Junkzillabox

Crying in HMart!! Comment from : Danny D

So it's like most things the New York Times slaps their name on; deceptive at best or an outright lie in some cases Comment from : Joshua Vidrine

I learnt to avoid any new York time best sellers 👍 Comment from : popopotato

The New York Post is too politically influenced to be a reliable source of book criticism Comment from : uhoh

I think the reason is Harry Potter At some point all books on the list were HP so they had to diversify and create other lists so other books would have a chance Comment from : Claudia Reina

I own a bible that has New York Times best seller stamped on the front 💀 Comment from : pixtree°

This is not entirely accurate Thousands of books are published, only a few hundred get on the NYE bestseller book The thing is that all the thousands of books that aren’t getting on the list aren’t successful enough for you to ever see on a shelf, so it appears that every book is a bestseller Comment from : Amphora Morph

They be lying Comment from : The_Dunks

It's also a visibility thing that's self-perpetuating - if you buy a book because it's a NYT bestseller, the book gets more sales and stays on the list and other people buy it because it is on there, etc And: the lists don't measure quality, only quantity, leading to some pretty bizarre scandals of people pushing their books on the list by buying a lot of copies themselves & promoting future sales by exposure Comment from : Lena

I feel bad for those who come #2 on the list Comment from : Puroo Roy

Also a book being sold a lot doesn't mean all those people read it, so that title really doesn't mean much of anything Comment from : KenzieHurlock

So, like most everything, it's a big ol lie and means nothing Everyone one knows it means nothing, but everyone pretends it means something Comment from : rainynight02

I thought it was similar to the “Number 1 movie in the world” where lots of movies get that title because it changes from week to week Interesting to see it’s not that case Comment from : Abe 10Alpha
