BookFinder.com Annual List of Top 100 Most Sought After Out-of-Print Books (2012 ed.)
The books we see for sale at a local chain bookstore or purchase new online are a small fraction of the entirety of human print culture. In fact, 98 to 99% of all books ever published are now out of print. These are the books featured in the BookFinder.com Report.
The BookFinder.com Report is issued every fall, and the 2012 edition marks the 10th anniversary of our tracking the most sought after out-of-print books in America.
Topping our anniversary list are the “big three” of out-of-print books which perennially find their way onto the BookFinder.com Report: Sex by Madonna,Rage by Richard Bachman (aka Stephen King), and Promise Me Tomorrow by Nora Roberts. This year’s list also marks the graduation of Marilyn by Norman Mailer, which after appearing in four straight Reports was finally reprinted by Taschen last December.
