Self-development books became the most popular in the fall of 2022

According to RIA Novosti, citing data from Wildberries, more often than others, users bought the book-meditation “Tender to Yourself” by Olga Primakova. Korney Chukovsky's collections of fairy tales for the little ones turned out to be popular, and from prose for adults, the main choice was Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray.

On Ozon, George Samuel's The Richest Man in Babylon (a book on financial management in the form of a collection of parables) and Gentle to Yourself, as well as Secret Support: Attachment in a Child's Life by Lyudmila Petranovskaya, were the most popular among others. Among fiction, the demand for drama increased sevenfold, and for poetry sixfold.

In May, we recall, "LitRes" named the most popular books about the war. Svetlana Aleksievich's “War Has No Woman's Face” was in first place, Viktor Astafiev's “Cursed and Killed” was in second, and Anatoly Kuznetsov's “Babi Yar” was in third. Leonid Rabichev was recognized as the most demanded front-line author.
