Best-Selling Books of 2000
The top 100 on Amazon UK that year.
A definitive look back at the 2000 Amazon UK chart. Click any cover to find it on Amazon.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire topped the list in its first full year, but the chart underneath it belonged to the kitchen: Nigella Lawson's How To Be A Domestic Goddess and How to Eat, Delia Smith's How to Cook books, and a Naked Chef pairing from Jamie Oliver at two and three. Celebrity cookery was already the engine of the bestseller list. The oddities are telling: Java in a Nutshell at forty and The Internet: The Rough Guide 2000 mark a dot-com-era public still learning the web, while The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook captures the millennium's nervy mood. A list split between wizardry, recipes and self-improvement.
