Best-Selling Books of 2022

The top 100 on Amazon UK that year.

A definitive look back at the 2022 Amazon UK chart. Click any cover to find it on Amazon.

Colleen Hoover owned the year: It Ends With Us took number one and she placed six titles in all, an author resurrected entirely by BookTok years after publication. The pattern is social-media-driven fiction backlist, Taylor Jenkins Reid's The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and Bonnie Garmus's Lessons in Chemistry riding the same wave. Atomic Habits kept its grip on self-help. The surprises lean to celebrity confession, Matthew Perry's memoir, Davina McCall's Menopausing and Miriam Margolyes's This Much is True, frank life-stories selling hard. Dr Julie Smith's Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? brought therapy to the masses. A year ruled by an algorithm's favourite novelist.
