E. T.: The Book of the Green Planet | William Kotzwinkle, Steven Spielberg

@kalinichta posted this link to find out the most popular book on the year that you were born. https://www.bookstr.com/article/which-book-was-popular-the-year-you-were-born/34... . Mine is E.T.! I've watched the movie but didn't know there was a book! Definitely have to read this one. What's your birth year best seller? Have you read it?

TheBookAddict I didn't know about E.T. either, I'll have to look for it. I have not read my birthdate bestseller either.

Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love, The Tie-in: A Novel

Laura317 I got Ian Fleming's You Only Live Twice. Saw the movie. Doubt I'll read the book. 1964 was apparently into Bond. James Bond. 8y

Bookzombie I got Sophie's Choice. I'm not surprised. It's at the top of every list I've seen for 1979. I'm debating if I want to read it for my birthday challenge.
