About rated books

For those who read only the best rated books, a good place to look is the New York Times. They publish a list of books that are popular and are of good quality content. So anyone who wants to find a good book can refer to their list.

The books are in many categories, such as prize winning books, best selling books and many more. Generally, the readers prefer to purchase bestseller books rather than prize winnings. The reason for this could be the latter are confounded to one area or aspect of an area.

Every category of books has its own best-rated books. As an example, the young readers' books have many areas such as cartoons, mysteries, adventure and love stories. These books have little opportunities to win recognition in the world of classical awards. However, these are being accepted in the high positions of best selling and are vastly translated into many languages. When focusing on 'Harry Potter', 'Lords of the Rings', 'Tin Tin', 'Famous Five', 'Secret Seven' and 'Nania', they are not award winning but among best selling.

Some of the adults' books are on the subject matters, philosophy or religion. There are many instances these books are among award winning category. These serve to develop the qualities and development of socio-cultural perspectives among readers.

The best-rated books have qualities such as flowing nature of the writing style and closeness to the reader's thoughts. The reader gets attracted to this style and develop liking towards the book. There are no unnecessary exaggerations or complicated words and phrases involved. The ambiguity is used suitably. If the book is for the young readers, ambiguity is avoided. If it is poetry, ambiguous nature is accepted up to some extent..

If a book contains too many incidents also it would be rejected by the market. The bestseller books possess the quality of linking one incident to another. As an example, the book 'Sister of My Heart' by Chitra Bannerji Divakaruni; links one chapter to another. There are two personas in this book. The author had divided the book between these two narrators without damaging the linkage of the incidents.

To be a best-rated book normally the stories should not be always found in the daily life. As a good example, 'Da Vincy Code' of Dan Brown could be mentioned. This story is not a common experience in daily life. It is uncommon. Bit it has become a bestselling book since the disputed nature of it. If the authors can provide something novel to the reader, they accept it without arguing on it. Thus, the best- rated books have different aspects of the human connection.

Other than the fictions, there are many best-rated books in the reading world. The poetry books are among those. These could be in any language. If writers can produce something novel, then critics and the readers accept it . In addition, the writer's experiences too have an effect on rating the books. As an example, the Sri Lankan author Martin Wickremasinghe wrote many books and all of them are accepted as best rated books. Thus, books of popular writers or poets have more acceptance than the books of novices.
