Highest Rated Popular Goodreads Books

These are books with at least 10,000 ratings on Goodreads that also have an average rating over 4.5. I've excluded any books in this group that are sequels, which is a majority of them, because those seem inevitably skewed. (People who dislike book #1 aren't likely to keep reading to book #3 or #7 or #14, so most of those books' readers are already fans.) This list is likely incomplete, but I consulted a few different lists on Goodreads to make it as comprehensive as possible.
