The best books of 2014

I Belonged to You

By Zhang Jiajia

While this heartwarming collection of bedtime stories by micro-blogger Zhang Jiajia was published in November 2013-and many of its stories were already online-the book sold very well this year.

"It's popular because the short stories are unrelated so readers can start with any page, which fits city life's fast pace," says Sun Qian. "Such lighthearted short stories are easier to sell than novels nowadays."
