The Power of Book Groups

Some novels owe their success to word-of-mouth recommendation through book groups. These were the quiet books that received very little publicity until readers began recommending them to each other.

A few of the books that owe their success to book groups:

Number One Ladies Detective Agency by Alexander McCall Smith

Captain Corelli's Mandolin by Louis de Bernieres

Divine Secrets of the YaYa Sisterhood by Rebecca Wells

The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
