Walter Isaacson’s bio of late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs topped Amazon’s list of the top-selling books of 2011, though the title is still number three for best-selling Kindle titles.While Amazon had predicted the bio, called Steve Jobs might take the number one spot for the year, the achievement is still impressive since the book wasn’t released until late October. Amazon did not release sales figures for the book. However, Nielsen BookScan had reported that Steve Jobs sold 379,000 copies in its first week of release.
With 25 days left this year, Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins is the best-selling Kindle book. Number two is The Litigators by John Grisham.
In addition to netting strong sales, Isaacson’s bio, based on more than 40 hours of interviews with Jobs and hundreds of interviews with Jobs’s family, friends and business associates, has also been generally well-received by critics and is reportedly the basis of an upcoming movie from Sony possibly starring Noah Wyle or George Clooney.
