"Matfighten" is, as the title suggests, a cookbook for children and young people – which makes it top the genre list of the year's best-selling cookbooks.

The most popular novel of the year was "The Friends at Nordiska Kompaniet" by Ruth Kvarnström-Jones, whose previous book "The Phenomenal Ladies at Grand Hôtel" is also high on the list. "The Stack" by Annika Norlin landed in second place and "The Vegetarian" by Nobel laureate Han Kang became third.

Sarah J Maas dominates the list of English general literature with her "A court of" series, with "A court of thorns and roses" as number one. The romance series has mainly received a boost via Tiktok.

The best-selling thriller on the online bookstore in 2024 was "The Sleepwalker" by Lars Kepler.
