Half the fun of reading is talking about what books make you think, feel, and learn with friends and coworkers.

But that conversation will be a lot more interesting if you're reading the same thing.

We went through the top 50 Amazon bestsellers and grabbed 10 of the most popular, critically acclaimed books on the site across a variety of genres. We skipped children's books and super-niche reads.

Amazon's list is updated hourly, and every single one also happens to appear on the New York Time bestseller list.

So you can be sure someone will want to talk about it.

"Milk and Honey takes readers through a journey of the most bitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them because there is sweetness everywhere if you are just willing to look."

'Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy,' by Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Grant

Amazon description:

"After the sudden death of her husband, Sheryl Sandberg felt certain that she and her children would never feel pure joy again. 'I was in 'the void,'' she writes, 'a vast emptiness that fills your heart and lungs and restricts your ability to think or even breathe.'

"Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist at Wharton, told her there are concrete steps people can take to recover and rebound from life-shattering experiences. We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle that everyone can build. Option B combines Sheryl’s personal insights with Adam's eye-opening research on finding strength in the face of adversity."
