Book Lovers and Data Enthusiasts! I’ve just completed an in-depth analysis of a massive dataset featuring over 9 million books from Goodreads, covering all genres of fiction and non-fiction.
I’m excited to share the results with you through a series of interactive data visualizations. These visuals offer unique insights into top books, hidden gems, and much more.
Key Features:
• Interactive visualizations for easy exploration
• Insights from over 9 million books
• Covers both fiction and non-fiction genres
Pro Tip: Use the fiction/non-fiction/all filter to customize your view. For instance, you can focus solely on non-fiction books if that’s your area of interest.
Dive in and discover fascinating patterns in the world of books. Whether you’re a casual reader, a publishing professional, or a data enthusiast, there’s something here for everyone!
I’d love to hear your thoughts and what insights you uncover. Happy exploring!

Hmm, I kept wondering if the data made sense. I.e. the plot in 6.1 where quite a lot of books have thousands of pages. 125 books with between 6000 and 7000 pages? (I'm sure I don't have any of them in my library :-)
But nice visualization and data summary.

Well, I just checked the data. Here are some books with 6000-7000 pages
- Worm (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18713259)
- Siren's Lament, Season 1 (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/54583088)
- Twig (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25116766)
- The Last Apprentice: Complete Collection (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22249782)
- التاريخ الإسلامي (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9198358)
- Azarinth Healer (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/45728081)
Remember that the data has a vast amount of books and just relatively few of them are popular.
Let me know if you have any other concern.
