What are the most popular books in China right now?

What are the most popular books in China? I mean books written originally in Chinese, popular among Chinese readers. Native material, not graded Chinese readers.

I would like to recommend this book <平凡的世界>. It's not a new book but many Chinese like it all the same. It was ranked in the best selling list of Amazon.cn for a long time.

Wow, that is old. I remember when I was young, it was on the radio like everyday. Yep, 中央人民广播电台1988年126天连播《平凡的世界》. Maybe you can find an audiobook version too.

 

But I'm not sure it still resonates with today's audience. It's supposed to be inspirational. And I'm allergic to inspirational.

Strangely, 2012玛雅预言真相  (The truth about the Mayan Prophecies) tops the bestsellers' list in the e-books seller Duokan - perhaps it's the price (0.99 元),  perhaps a certain 'end-of-year' mood or a reflection of the times. 

三体(全三册) is second, and has been 1st or 2nd for at least 2 years.

Haven't read an entire book in Chinese for a long time! Guess it's time to start again!

 

Thanks for the hints folks!
