Book trends for 2019

Trends in any market are continuously changing as news develops and more discoveries are being made. If you’re a mass book fan or someone who is planning to write your own book, these trends are something to keep in mind for 2019.


Diversity will continue to be a driving economic force in publishing - There’s no doubt that in 2019, diversity continues to be more widely accepted as it should be, and there are more multicultural influential voices in the news. Whether it means including it in your written work or sharing books that involve diversity, it’s something that undoubtedly does well on the publishing front in today’s open and accepting society.


Reading is being done on different mediums - Goodbye are the days where we head down to a bookshop and buy our latest read. Today, avid readers are reading novels in various different mediums and will continue to do so. It could be through online browsing, app reading subscriptions or on a kindle. Fewer people are seeing traditional reading as important and swaying towards the more convenient way - on their mobile device.


Look towards alternative media - As well as different ways to browse books, there are also different ways to write books and other content. Alternative writing platforms exist such as Wattpad, which began 12 years ago and has become one of the greatest fan-fiction websites, used by many. The site now hosts over 550 million stories by writers worldwide. It’s a prime place to have your writing seen and eventually get published.
