This article is very interesting and useful for my research. It gives a week by week break down of the rankings of the books That Oprah has mentioned on her show. It shows how much it is still a factor in how America reads and what they buy. The 2007 list is very impressive just like when she began talking about books in the 90's. This will be a good thing that I can look at and draw some conclusions on about books and effects.

The authors of this article work to express how huge of a deal Oprah Winfrey is in our reading world. They point out how in the years that Oprah talked about her book club weekly on her show; all of the books were on America's top 150! This is a huge point to support my claim of influence that Oprah has over us. This article was extremely helpful also because there were a lot of graphs that showed the huge relationship between Oprah's announcement and ranking of book. The article gives many more stats and examples of influence and will be very useful to me in my paper.
