Sunday Funday! Bestselling Books The Year You Were Born!

It’s Sunday.  Time to relax and take a break from reading by doing something reading related, haha.  I recently came across this website on Facebook and I thought this was the COOLEST thing ever!

There’s an article that Mental Floss did recently called What Was the Bestselling Book the Year You Were Born? Wordery’s Online Tool Tells You and they tell you exactly that!

Simply click on the link above (it will open in a new window) and type in your age!  Then it will tell you what the bestselling book was that year!  I was born in 1984 and my book is…

AquitaineProgression

The Aquitaine Progression by Robert Ludlum.  Here’s the synopsis…

It begins in Geneva. There, American lawyer Joel Converse meets a man he hasn’t seen in twenty years, a covert operative who dies violently at his feet, whispering words that hand Converse a staggering legacy of death: ‘The generals…they’re back…Aquitaine!’

Suddenly Converse is running for his life, alone with the world’s most shattering secret. Pursued by anonymous executioners to the darkest corners of Europe, he is forced to play a game of survival by blood rules he thought he’d long left behind. And only Converse, and the woman he once loved and lost, can wrest the world from the iron grasp of Aquitaine…

I love thrillers and this spent 12 weeks as a New York Times Bestseller.  I plan on reading this book sometime in the near future, I just think it would be a cool thing to do!  What book was the bestseller the year you were born??
