All of Oprah's Book Recommendations So Far

"When it comes to book picks, Oprah Winfrey is a woman of sterling taste, and the book world takes notice of her opinions.
Oprah's wildly popular TV show was very influential. So influential, in fact, that there's a business term for it: the Oprah Effect. A mention by Oprah can be the making of a previously unknown brand, and books recommended by Oprah see their sales soar. Of the 70 books she recommended on her show between 1996 and 2011, 59 made it onto the USA Today Bestseller List. 22 hit number one – including Tolstoy's classic, Anna Karenina. Her most-recommended author was Toni Morrison – many of us are so grateful that Oprah helped spotlight her incomparable books."
