Summary/Abstract: Object of examination in the article is the specificity and activities of Bulgarian book publishing and Bulgarian literature in 2017. The purpose of the survey is to follow the trends in the Bulgarian book publishing and to investigate which are the best selling Bulgarian books during this period of time. In order to achieve this, I am going to analyze the rating of bestseller books of the biggest book store in my country – “Heliкon” and also the rating of one of the most developed Bulgarian publishing houses – “Hermes”. The main task of the research is to investigate the data from these book ratings and to examine which bestseller books in 2017 are representatives of the contemporary Bulgarian literature. In this way we can have better understanding about the specificity and the trends in the modern Bulgarian book publishing and we can examine which books provoke biggest interest in the audience.
