This is a follow-up post of my recently published article last week, Bestseller Books of All Time. Datas posted were taken from the Nielson Bookscan, for which in my opinion is the world's most reliable research database about the top sold books in over 31, 500 bookshops all around the globe. The results were astounding and the enumeration of  specific imprints, authors, price points, book categories, actual sales price, and consumer discount levels were detailed.

A recopy of the top books  of 2011 is featured here. This will be good reference for book lovers, whose goal is to find quality reading materials of 2012. It seems that I got the edge after visiting the library of Kiryat Ono, almost all books posted were available already on the entrance bookshelf (what a luck!).
