These are the best books ever, according to the Goodreads community

We’re always on the hunt for new books to add to our reading lists. That’s why we use Goodreads. It’s one of the easiest ways to find new titles and track our favorites.

And Goodreads users have compiled a “Best Books Ever” list called the “Best Books Ever,” and we’re counting down to see how many of them we’ve read.

It’s important to note that this unofficial list was created by Goodreads users, so don’t take its rankings too seriously. We love The Hunger Games, but is it really the number one best book of all time? Debatable. (Does it feature the number one best love triangle of all time? Definitely.) Still, this is a great list to reference if you’re looking to add some beloved titles to your “to-read” shelf.
