This is a list of
bestselling novels in the
United States in the 1910s, as determined by
The Bookman, a New York–based literary journal (1910–1912) and Publishers Weekly (1913 and beyond).[1] The list features the most popular novels of each year from
1910 through
1919.
The standards set for inclusion in the lists – which, for example, led to the exclusion of the
novels in the Harry Potter series from the lists for the
1990s and
2000s – are currently unknown.
