What is the Internet’s Favorite Book?

By Dan Kopf · 1,713 views



Which is the better book: War and Peace or installment one of The Hunger Games
If you ask a book reviewer or look at any of the “Best Book” lists compiled by  critics, you would say War and Peace. But what if you asked everyday readers on the Internet?
Over four million member of the website Goodreads members have rated the first installment of The Hunger Games on a 1-5 scale, and it has received an average score of 4.36. It currently sits atop a Goodreads crowdsourced list of “Best Books Ever”. By comparison, the average score given by the 150,000 people who have rated War and Peace is 4.10, and it ranks 724th on the “Best Books Ever list”.
It’s no surprise that on a crowdsourced ratings site, a briskly paced young adult novel beat out a dense, 1,000 page philosophical epic about Napoleon’s invasion of Russia. And it’s probably not exactly the same group of people rating the Hunger Games and War and Peace. They likely have different backgrounds and expectations in literature.
Still, Goodreads ratings provide a glimpse into the literature that people actually like the most, and how that might differ from the critics. We know what the literati think from the variety of literary prizes and lists of books you must read before you die. But what do the people say? We collected the ratings for tens of thousands of books on Goodreads to find out.
Our analysis shows that the books people are most exuberant about include Calvin and Hobbesmanga and South American poetry. And if you want to read a classic blessed by both the critics and the Internet, you should pick up a novel by Robert Graves or Vladimir Nabokov—and avoid James Joyce like the plague. We also found that George R.R. Martin is the king of fantasy and Nigella Lawson the queen of cookbooks, and that Goodreads ratings suggest that David Foster Wallace is the 57th most loved fiction writer.
Calvin and Hobbes collections are among the most highly rated books on Goodreads.
The website Goodreads was launched in 2007 as a social platform for readers to share their book recommendations and catalogue what they have read. The website now has over 20 million users and contains the world’s largest repository of book ratings. Well over 500 million ratings have been given to the more than 10 million books listed on the site.
Rather than collect the rating for every single book, we chose to collect data on the ten most popular books by each of the 9,000 authors who appear on Goodreads’ Best Books Ever list – a list which is independent of user ratings and voted on by particularly active members. We ended up with a dataset of over 23,000 notable books.
With this data in hand, we turned to the question of which books the Internet think are best. 
The following table displays the twenty highest rated books in our dataset. We only included books with over 2,000 ratings. For reference, the average book gets a rating of 3.98.
With a score of 4.81, the highest rated book is Bill Watterson’s The Complete Calvin and Hobbes. Over 27,000 users have rated the book, and considerably more than 80% of them have given it five stars. It scores just ahead of the ESV Study Bible – an English Standard Version of the Bible with evangelical commentary.
Five of the top twenty rated books are Calvin and Hobbes’ collections. The dominance of Bill Watterson’s comics about a young boy and his stuffed tiger can be looked at in two ways. One, almost everyone who reads this book loves it, or two, Calvin and Hobbes fans are unusually devoted to the strip and likely to vote on Goodreads. It is likely some combination of the two.
Comics are well represented on this list of Goodreads most loved books. “Toda Mafalda”, which is third on the list, is a collection of comic strips by the Argentinian cartoonist Quino. “The Complete Far Side”, a collection of work by the cartoonist Gary Larson, is 16th. Religious and fantasy novels also do well.
The books that receive the most ratings on Goodreads, such as the Harry Potter and theGame of Thrones series, do not appear on this list. In fact, none of the 55 books that have received over a million ratings score above 4.6.
Are the most popular books also well loved? The chart below displays the number of ratings and average rating for every book in our dataset.
Dan Kopf, Priceonomics; Data: Goodreads
The five most reviewed books on Goodreads are the first books in The Hunger GamesHarry Potter and Twilight series, and the novels To Kill a Mockingbird and The Great Gatsby. The highest performing of these megahits is Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, which has a rating of 4.42. 
The Harry Potter series also has the most highly rated book that has over one million ratings: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has nearly 1.6 million reviews and scores a 4.59. Apparently, if you get to the seventh installment in a series, you probably really like it.
Harry Potter books combine popularity with high ratings like no others.
Beyond looking at the Internet’s favorite books, we also analyzed who Goodreads has anointed as the greatest author. We measured this by looking at the average ratings of authors’ books. We consider only authors with five books or more on Goodreads.
As you might expect given the adoration of Calvin and Hobbes, Bill Watterson is number one on the list of most loved authors. He is followed by a diverse set of writers (and one religious institution).
Hiromu Arakawa and eight other authors on this list are Japanese manga artists. Manga is a type of Japanese comic book/graphic novel that is increasingly popular internationally. Manga authors like Arakawa, Hiro Fujiwara, Yana Toboso and Yosihiki Nakamura consistently publish books that get rave reviews.
Ashley Antoinette – third on the list – is the author of the “racy” and popular Prada Plannovels. Antoinette’s books, which she frequently co-authors with her husband JaQuavis Coleman, all have thousands of ratings with an average above 4.5. 
The Church of Latter-day Saints is the only non individual author to make the list. Books published by this institution, such as the Book of Mormon and True to the Faith, all score highly on Goodreads. While other religious institutions also publish books, none have such fervent support.
Our list of top twenty authors is dominated by just a few genres: comics, religion and young adult. The readers of genres like business, history and memoir seem to be more critical. The following list shows the top author of each genre – we assigned authors to the first genre listed on their Goodreads author page. ChickLit is a genre name given by Goodreads, not Priceonomics.
Most genres are topped by a famous author. Gabriel Garcia Marquez once called Pablo Neruda the greatest poet of the 20th Century, and the Internet agrees. Gore Vidal, a celebrated biographer of Abraham Lincoln and Aaron Burr, tops his genre. George R. R. Martin beats out J.R.R. Tolkien for the top spot in Fantasy.
Other authors are less well known. It is not Dr. Seuss or Maurice Sendak who tops the Children's book genre, but Patricia Polacco. Polacco’s five most popular books all get ratings over 4.3, and her most popular book, the autobiographical Thank You, Mr. Falker, receives a 4.51. The most highly rated Science Fiction author is Cassandra Clare. Clare’s novel City of Bones has received over one million reviews, and her ratings are consistently better than luminaries like Isaac Asimov and Ursula K. Le Guin.
Thus far, our most highly rated lists do not include history’s most celebrated authors like Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, and George Eliot. We wondered if they would show up if we focused exclusively on authors who Goodreads designates as part of the genre “fiction”.
This list includes writers of contemporary pop fiction like Ashley Antoinette and romance novelists Tiffany Reisz and C.L. Stone, but also members of the literary canon. The Argentine short-story writer Jorge Luis Borges and the French novelist Marcel Proust, who are considered among modern literature's most influential authors, both make the top ten.
Some other notable fiction authors also appear in the top 100: Flannery O’Connor (25), James Baldwin (26), Arthur Conan Doyle (29), Lee Child (43), Fyodor Dostoyevsky (52), David Foster Wallace (56), Nicholas Sparks (68), Kurt Vonnegut (73) and Alice Munro (100).
Still, very few authors of the classics make the list. The most hallowed authors are not the Internet’s favorites. 
So which classics are also crowd-pleasers? To assess which classics people actually like, we looked at the average rating of the top 50 books on thegreatestbooks.org, a list that combines the results from more than one hundred other best books lists. (The list has a heavy European and North American bias.) Books are ranked by their Goodreads rating.
The highest rated classic is the Collected Fiction of Jorge Luis Borges. Borges’s Collected Fiction is one of three short story collections that top the list, along with the works of Anton Chekhov and Franz Kafka. It’s a bit of a surprise to see the works of these challenging authors perform so well. Maybe we would all be happier with our literary lives if we read more short stories.
It’s worth noting that Goodreads profiles are public to your friends, so some of these ratings may be impacted by social pressure or a desire to exhibit a certain sensibility. The strong ratings of these tougher classics could be due to literary snobs who pretend to like In Search of Lost Time.
Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov and Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice are the top two novels on the list. Pride and Prejudice is the only classic novel with over one million ratings and an average rating above 4.2. Elizabeth and Darcy bring the quantity and quality.
Heart of Darkness and Moby Dick receive the worst ratings among the classics. Herman Melville and Joseph Conrad’s dark stories of insane men may be celebrated by literary critics, but the Internet is not impressed. Generally, older books perform worse on Goodreads.UlyssesThe OdysseyGulliver’s Travels, and the Canterbury Tales are all among the ten worst rated classics.
These old books rate quite poorly, but their low scores pale in comparison to the very least liked books. The following table shows the twenty books with the lowest ratings that were rated at least 2,000 times.
The most loathed book in the dataset is L. Ron Hubbard’s Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health with a rating of 2.29. Hubbard is the founder of the Church of Scientology. His book is on his theory of psychotherapy.
The book which best combines popularity and dislike is One Night at the Call Center by the Indian author Chetan Bhagat. Bhagat’s books, which mostly focus on India’s “new” young middle class, are wildly popular in India, but also disdained in literary circles.
***
Just like restaurants and mechanics, books are now at the mercy of online rating systems. It may seem perverse to critics to take a piece of literature and reduce to a 1-5 rating, but millions of of readers on Goodreads to just that.
Our examination of these ratings show that the books people rate highest are generally not those that win the Man Booker or Pulitzer Prize. They are crowd-pleasers like Calvin and Hobbes, Japanese comic books and other books with devoted followings. When the Internet decides, James Joyce doesn’t hold a candle to J.K. Rowling.

Need a professional writer? Fiction and non-fiction? contact richard.nata@yahoo.co.id
Let me introduce myself. My name is Richard Nata. I am an author, novelist, blogger and ghost writer. My articles, including short stories have been published in magazines and newspapers since 1994. I have written a lot of books, both fiction and non-fiction. So I was a professional in the field of writing, both fiction and non-fiction.

I was born in Jakarta, August 17, 1968.  

In 1988, at the age of 20 years, I started working as an accounting staff. Age 24 years has occupied the position of Finance Manager. Age 26 years as a General Manager.

In 1994, my articles published in magazines and tabloids.

In 1997, I wrote a book entitled "Buku Pintar Mencari Kerja". This book is reprinted as much as 8 times. Through the book, the authors successfully helped tens of thousands of people get jobs at once successful in their careers. They were also successful when moving to work in other places.

In 1998, I started investing in shares on Bursa Efek Indonesia (Indonesia stock exchange). As a result of investing in the stock market then I can provide consulting services for companies that want to go public in Indonesia stock exchange.

BUKU PINTAR DAPAT KERJA GAJI TINGGI PINDAH KERJA GAJI SEMAKIN TINGGI made by retyping the book BEST SELLER of the author, entitled “Buku Pintar Mencari Kerja”. This ebook available on google play.

In 2015, I had the idea of a startup company where the readers can decide for themselves the next story. WASN'T THIS A GREAT IDEA? IF can be realized WILL BE WORTH billions USD. Because CAN PRODUCE FOR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS even tens of millions USD annually. 

In theory, in 10-20 years into the future, my startup income, amounting to hundreds of million USD annually can be obtained easily. AND IF FOLLOWED BY MANY COMPANIES IN THE WHOLE WORLD WILL THEN BE A NEW INDUSTRIAL worth trillions USD. 

To be honest. Currently I'm not having a lot of money. So I start marketing my startup with blogspot.

My STARTUP :


A story with millions of choices in it - looking investor like you.



Try to imagine this. When you're reading a story on the web or blog, you are given two choices. You can choose the next story based on your own choice. After selecting then you can continue reading the story. Shortly afterwards you will be presented back to the 2 other options. The next choice is up to you. Then you continue the story you are reading. After that you will be faced again with 2 choices. So onwards. The more stories you read so the more options you have taken.


If you feel curious then you can re-read the story by changing your selection. Then you will see a different story with the story that you have read previously. The question now is why is this so? Because the storyline will be varying according to your choice. 


I, as the author is planning to make tens of thousands of articles with millions of choices in it. With tens of thousands of articles then you like to see a show of your favorite series on TV for several years. The difference is while watching your favorite TV series, then you can not change the story. Meanwhile, if you read this story then you can alter the way the story according to your own choice.

You might say like this. Sounds like a book "choose your own adventure". Books I read when I was young.

Correctly. The idea is taken from there. But if you read through a book, the story is not so exciting. Due to the limited number of pages. When a child first you may already feel interesting. But if you re-read the book now then becomes no fun anymore because you don't get anything with the amount of 100-200 pages. 

Have you ever heard of game books?  When you were boy or girl, did you like reading game books? I think you've heard even happy to read it.

Gamebooks are sometimes informally called choose your own adventure books or CYOA which is also the name of the Choose Your Own Adventure series published byBantam BooksGamebook - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gamebook - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A gamebook is a work of fiction that allows the reader to participate in the story by making effective choices. The narrative branches along various paths through the use of numbered paragraphs or pages.

Bantam Books with the Choose Your Own Adventure 

series has produced more than 250 million US 

dollars. While I offer you more powerful than the Choose 

Your Own Adventure. Because of what? Because the 

story that I made much more interesting than the stories 

created by the authors of Bantam Books. You will not get anything just to 100-200 pages. While the story that I created is made up of tens of thousands of articles with millions of choices in it.

For comparison are the books published with the theme "choose your own adventure" produces more than 250 million copies worldwide. If the average price of a book for 5 USD, the industry has produced more than 1.5 billion USD. But unfortunately this industry has been abandoned because the reader begins to feel bored. The last book was published entitled "The Gorillas of Uganda (prev." Search for the Mountain Gorillas ")". And this book was published in 2013.

Based on the above, then you are faced with two choices. Are you interested in reading my story is? Or you are not interested at all. The choice is in your hands.
If you are interested then spread widely disseminated this article to your family, friends, neighbors, and relatives. You can also distribute it on facebook, twitter, goggle +, or other social media that this article be viral in the world. By doing so it is a new entertainment industry has been created.

Its creator named Richard Nata.

The full articles that talks about this: 
  



WHY DO I NEED STARTUP FUNDS FROM INVESTORS? I NEED A LOT OF FUNDS FROM INVESTORS BECAUSE I HAVE TO LOOKING FOR EXPERT PROGRAMMERS(IT).BECAUSE THE DATA IS HANDLED IS VERY LARGE, IT MAY HAVE TO WEAR SOME PROGRAMMERS(IT).

I CAN NOT WEAR SOME FREELANCE PROGRAMMER BECAUSE THE DATA MUST BE MONITORED CONTINUOUSLY FROM VIRUSES, MALWARE, SPAM, AND OTHERS.

IN ADDITION FUNDS FROM INVESTORS IS ALSO USED TO BUY SERVERS WITH VERY LARGE CAPACITY. FUNDS ARE ALSO USED TO PAY EMPLOYEE SALARIES AND OPERATIONAL COSTS OF THE COMPANY.

FUNDS CAN ALSO BE USED FOR ADVERTISING AND OTHER MARKETING STRATEGIES.FUNDS CAN ALSO BE USED TO ADVERTISE MY STARTUP AND OTHER MARKETING STRATEGIES.

IF I GET A VERY LARGE FUND, THE PART OF THE FUNDS USED TO TRANSLATE THE STORY INTO VARIOUS LANGUAGES.With more and more languages, the more readers we get.
WITH MORE AND MORE READERS, THE MORE REVENUE WE GET. 

AS AN INVESTOR THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FEEL ANXIOUS ABOUT YOUR FUNDS. BECAUSE YOUR FUNDS WILL NEVER BE LOST BECAUSE IN 3-5 YEARS YOU HAVE RETURNED THE FUNDS COUPLED WITH PROFIT.
THIS BUSINESS IS ONE AND THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD.

If we can make a good story, so that the readers will 

come again and again for further reading the story then 

our earnings will continue to grow and will never 

diminish. This is due to new readers who continued  to 

arrive, while long remained loyal readers become our 

customers.

So that the number of our readers will continue to 

multiply over time. With the increasing number of loyal 

readership then automatically the amount of income we 

will also grow larger every year. The same thing 

happened in yahoo, google, facebook, twitter, linkedin, 

and others when they still startup.

Deuteronomy {28:13} And the LORD shall make thee the 

head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and 

thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do [them: ]

Try to imagine this. If I give a very unique story. It was the first time in the world. But the world already know this story even liked it. Because the world love the game books. While the story that I made is the development of game books.
Do you Believe if I dare say if I will succeed because my story will be famous all over the world as Harry Potter?
I believe it. Not because I was the author of the story, but because of the story that I made is unique and the only one in the world. 
Income from my startup :
1. Ads. With millions of unique visitors, the price of the ads will be expensive.
2. Affiliate marketing. In addition to advertising, we are also able to put up some banner from affiliate marketing.
3. Contribution of the readers. If you have a million readers and every reader to pay one US dollar per year then you will get the income of one million US dollars per year. 
If you have a million readers and every reader to pay one US dollar per month then you will get as much revenue twelve million US dollars per year.
4. Books and Comics. After getting hundreds of thousands to the millions of readers of the story will be made in books and the form of a picture story (comics).
5. Movies. If we have a good story with millions of readers then quickly we will be offered to make a film based on the story.
6. Merchandise related to characters. After the movies there will be made an offer for the sale of goods related to the characters.
7. Sales. With millions of email that we have collected from our readers so we can sell anything to them.
    Each income (1-7) worth millions to tens of millions of US dollars. 
    Because each income (1-7) worth millions to tens of millions of US dollars. Then in 10-20 years into the future, AI will be earning hundreds of million USD annually.
So how long do you think my story that I made could gather a thousand readers? Ten thousand readers? One hundred thousand readers? A million readers? Five million readers? Ten million readers? More than ten million readers?
But to get all of it of course takes time, can not be instant. In addition, it takes hard work, big funds and placement of the right people in the right positions.
By advertising, viral marketing, strong marketing strategies and SEO then a million readers can be done in less than a year. Ten million readers can be done in two to three years.
This is the marketing strategy of my startup.
When hundreds of thousands or millions of readers already liked my story then they have to pay to enjoy the story that I made.
If you are a visionary then you will think like this.
With the help of my great name in the world of business, my expertise in marketing, advertising, marketing by mouth, viral marketing, then collecting a million readers to ten million readers will be easy to obtain. Is not that right?
The question now is what if people like my story as they like Harry Potter? You will get tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of email addresses from readers. With that much email, we can sell anything to the readers.
Since April 2013, Wikipedia has around 26 million articles in 285 languages are written by 39 million registered users and a variety of anonymous people who are not known from other parts of the world.  Web ranked by Alexa, Wikipedia is a famous website number 6 which has been visited by 12% of all Internet users with 80 million visitors every month and it is only from the calculation of America.

resource : http://www.tahupedia.com/content/show/136/Sejarah-dan-Asal-Mula-Wikipedia

If no Wikipedia then need hundreds of thousands to millions of books required to make 26 million articles in 285 languages into books.

With the Wikipedia then people started to leave to read a book or books to seek knowledge about a subject or many subjects.

The same thing will happen. Read a story in a book or books to be abandoned. Read a story with millions of choices on the web or blog is far more interesting than reading a book or books. 

So what happens next? In 10-20 years ahead then read a story in a book to be abandoned. Otherwise my startup will grow and continue to develop into a new entertainment industry.

New entertainment industry, where I was a forerunner startup will continue to evolve. 
Therefore, in 10-20 years into the future, my startup will be earning hundreds of million USD annually.

So do not delay. Invest your money immediately to my startup. Take A Look. There are so many advantages if you want to invest in my startup.
WHY YOU SHOULD INVEST YOUR MONEY RIGHT NOW? .
IF YOU INVEST YOUR FUNDS IN ONE, TWO OR THREE YEARS INTO THE FUTURE, YOU MAY BE TOO LATE.
BECAUSE IN 1-3 YEARS INTO THE FUTURE THEN I'VE GOT THE FUNDS. THE FUNDS CAN COME FROM SOME INVESTORS, LOANS FROM BANKS OR FROM ADVERTISEMENTS POSTED ON MY BLOG.

IF I'VE GOT A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUNDS THEN I'VE NO NEED OF YOUR FUNDS. SO INVEST NOW OR NOT AT ALL.

My BLOG started to be written January 11, 2015. TODAY, MAY 30, 2015, THE NUMBER OF CLICKS HAS REACHED 56,750. SO FAR SO GOOD.

If I get big funds from investors then with a quick story that I wrote will spread throughout the world.

So I got acceleration because I can put ads in a large variety of media such as Google AdWords, Facebook, and others. I also can perform a variety of other marketing strategies.
If I do not get funding from investors then my story would still spread throughout the world. But with a longer time, Slow but sure.

So either I get funding from investors or not, the story that I wrote will remain spread throughout the world. Ha ... 7x

So don't worry, be happy.

My advice to you is you should think whether the data that I have provided to you makes sense or not .
If my data reasonable then immediately invest your funds as soon as possible.

Then we discuss how we plan further cooperation.

Thank you.
Lord Jesus bless you.
Amen
P.S. The offer letter I gave also to the hedge funds and 

venture capital and other major companies 

in the entire 

world. So who is fast then he will get it.


P.P.S. In addition, there is one more thing I 

want to tell you. If a story can generate tens 

of millions of US dollars, then what if made 


many stories? Then why do not you make 2, 3 or many stories? You will get hundreds of million USD annually.
