Read all about being an early riser and conquering all challenges in your path
by Robert T. Kiyosaki
The ‘no. 1 personal finance book of all time’, first published almost 23 years ago, creeps into the SA top ten for the first time since Daily Maverick started compiling this list. At least Sam Beckbessinger’s local title in the same genre is beating it! (See no. 5.)
by Marian Keyes
Johnny Casey, his two brothers Ed and Liam, their beautiful, talented wives and all their kids spend a lot of time together. Under the surface, though, conditions are murky. While some people clash, other people like each other far too much … As everything unravels, each of the adults finds themselves wondering if it’s finally time to grow up.
by Paolo Coehlo
Making its first appearance on our best seller list, this classic (and perennial top 100 title, originally published in 1988) is a fable whose central message is to pursue your dreams by following your heart.
by Charlie Macksey
by Sam Beckbessinger
You don’t know how to budget for your lunch breaks, much less your life. You haven’t asked for a raise in years and you have too many credit cards in your wallet. This book will sort you out. This book is the book to f*cking get. Great to see this SA local title back in the top 10.
by Michelle Obama
Obama returns to the bestseller list after several months away. We’re still hoping this is the first book in a trilogy that’s followed by Becoming President and Becoming President Again.
by Wilbur Smith with Chris Wakling
Kicks off a brand-new series for readers 10+. It stars fourteen-year-old Jack Courtney, travelling to Democratic Republic of the Congo with his parents. He and his friends will need their wits about them to navigate the adventure!
