Best-selling books may come and go, but the Bible remains a firm favorite.

God's Word came out top in a list of popular books for discussion groups in an online poll conducted by Reading Group Guides to mark its tenth anniversary.

The Bible came first in the list of Top 10 Strange Book Club Choices compiled from votes by more than 12,000 people. Next on the list was The Ethical Slut: A Practical Guide to Polyamory, Open Relationships and Other Adventures by Dossie Easton and Janet W. Hardy.

Heading the overall Top 10 Discussion Books was The Help by Kathryn Stocket. Fifth was Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth ilbert, while Anita Diamant's The Red Tent—a novel about the biblical character Dinah—was tenth.

Published to coincide with the October celebration of National Reading Group Month, the lists can be found in full at http://www.readinggroupguides.com/content/index.asp
