Top 50 Hidden Gems
The Hidden Gems list excludes Big Five publishers, as well as other publishers of significant size (for example, Norton and Scholastic). For October 2023, we’ve excluded test prep guides (such as those from Kaplan), atlases from Rand McNally, National Geographic, the Bible, and blockbuster cartoon compilations from Andrews McMeel (Calvin & Hobbes). We let you know every month what we’ve excluded, or how we’ve changed list compilation.
In cases where the publisher name matches the author name, the book is listed as self-published. Keep in mind that even if a publisher name is listed, it might be self-published. A good example is Keila Shaheen, who has self-published The Shadow Work Journal, but the 2nd edition was released under the name of her business, Zenfulnote.
Update (11/28): A book published by a Penguin Random House imprint, Roc Lit 101, snuck through. It was removed, making room for the last title on this list (#50).
Update (11/29): Rodale is now owned by Penguin Random House, so two of their titles have been removed and two additional titles added to the end.
