When this list was created, there were 7 books with more than a million ratings and 40 books between a half million and a million ratings. This list originally went to 500k but that was too big.
As of 2017-10-29 this list is being switched from 100k-200k to 100k to 150k. Hopefully this will hold us for awhile.
For this list, only include books that have from 100,000 to 149,999 ratings on Goodreads. Books with more than that should be moved to the next list. Books with less than 100,000 may be removed and without comment.
Helpful Librarians - if you help maintain this and other similar lists - please don't remove books from one of these lists for too many ratings unless you are willing to put it on the next list. That said, the "all books" lists below 80,000 have never had this rule.
Lists for all books by Number of Ratings:
10,000 to 15,000, 15,000 to 20,000, 20,000 to 25,000, 25,000 to 30,000,
30,000 to 40,000, 40,000 to 50,000, 50,000 to 60,000, 60,000 to 70,000,

An interesting list of popular books http://www.librarything.com/z_books.php and definitely shows the difference in size between goodreads and librarything.

I'm thinking there are too many of these books for this list. I was thinking of splitting this into two lists - 100k to 200k and 200k to 500k.
Removed Fahrenheit 451 from this list. It is now in the half million and above list - http://www.goodreads.com/list/user_vo...
Removed for ratings:The Shack: Where Tragedy Confronts Eternity
Northern Lights
Watchmen
The Bell Jar: A Novel
Matilda
Outlander
The Color Purple
Macbeth
Room
Les Misérables
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
I wish goodreads did these lists automatically. That said, I appreciate this assistance in moving books from this list to the next lists and in finding books missing from this list.
I think there may be a lot more books qualified for this list - perhaps as many as 50. One of the ways I go hunting is by Explore:People:Top Users:All Time - list all books:edit shelf to add ratings and sort on ratings. I'd add more but I'm limited to 100 votes. And that's after unvoting wherever someone also voted for the same book.
Need to add - the voyage of the dawn treader, club dead, city of fallen angels and the night circus.
Need to add - Oh the Places you'll go, The Metamorphosis, The Name of the Rose, Persuasion, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, Things Fall Apart, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
Need to add - She's Come Undone, I Know This Much Is True, Unbroken a World War II Story of Survival, The Art of Racing In The Rain
