Rolón, García Márquez, Bachrach and Enríquez lead the most read of a 2024 dominated by self-help and love stories

In second place is Gabriel Garcia Marquez with his novel “See you in August,” posthumous novel by the notable Colombian writer, winner of the Nobel Prize, which a decade after his death, was published in 30 countries. The narrative focuses on a woman named Ana Magdalena Bach, who travels to a Caribbean island every August to visit her mother’s grave. In these dark pilgrimages, briefly freed from her husband and family, she each time finds a new lover.

Fifth place went to “This pain is not mine,” of Mark Wolynn, which, in line with family constellations, seeks to identify and resolve inherited family traumas.

The sixth most read book of the year was “The Neville House 2. Do not want anything vile”, by Florencia Bonelli, the second book of the writer’s trilogy in which, in the midst of the complex network of lies and betrayals that surrounds them, Manon and Alexander will try to consolidate their love.

“Atomic habits”, of James Clearranked seventh in the overall top, another self-help book that proposes simple habits to transform life and attract good luck, which includes stories of artists, successful athletes and businessmen.

In eighth place was “A sunny place for gloomy people”, of Mariana Enriquez, twelve stories about horror, about the evil that lurks and the monsters that arise in the most everyday reality, where the ghostly is present in every line.

In ninth place appears Jorge Fernandez Diazwith “Cora.” The author combines his knowledge of the human condition with suspense and his new book is a world of love intrigues.

The general top closes with “The monk who sold his Ferrari”, of Robin S. Sharma, a self-help book that is a business fable centered on two characters, Julian Mantle and his best friend John, in the form of conversations. Julián narrates his spiritual experiences during a trip to the Himalayas.
