A controversial memoir by a member of the Royal Family was the most-borrowed book at the Regina Public Library in 2023.
Prince Harry’s Spare was the most popular book on the library’s non-fiction and overall lists last year.
“Popular culture has a huge influence on what we read,” Geoffrey Allan, the RPL’s director of collections, said in a release Tuesday. “It’s always interesting to see the connection between what people are reading and recent movies, memoirs, current events, and even celebrity gossip.”
Three novels by Colleen Hoover — It Starts With Us, It Ends With Us and Verity — held the top three spots on the overall fiction list for 2023.
The prequel to The Hunger Games series, Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins, was the No. 1 title on the overall young adult list. The Hunger Games was No. 2 on that list.
Michelle Good’s Truth Telling: Seven Conversations About Indigenous Life in Canada topped the list of books by Saskatchewan authors and was No. 2 on the list of titles by Indigenous authors.
Ten books from the Dog Man series by Dav Pilkey filled every spot on the list of most-borrowed children’s books. That list was topped by Dog Man: Grime and Punishment, which also was No. 2 on the overall list behind Prince Harry’s memoir.
Eight of the Dog Man books appeared on the list of the 10 most-borrowed books overall.
