The Most Popular Book Published the Year You Were Born

From Men's Health:
"From prestigious Pulitzer Prize winners to books that have been praised by Oprah herself, we scoured several best-seller lists and award archives to find the most popular book published every year since 1945. What did we find? The past six decades have brought us some truly riveting tales.
Whether you prefer to take a story slowly, or can't finish it quickly enough, you'll be sure to add some of these all-time favorites to the top of your reading wish list."
1945-2019
