For months, the most sought-after foreign authors in libraries have included the queen of detective novels, Agatha Christie, the British writer of Cypriot origin, Alex Michaelides, the Turkish novelist and essayist Elif Shafak, the German Erich Maria Remarque, the Canadian writer Nicholas Sparks, and others. As always, in the mosaic of libraries' reading preferences, books served by the school assignment program are in the leading places: novels and short stories by Nar-Dos and Grigor Zohrap, "The Bride of Tetrachoma" by Kostan Zaryan, "Childhood and Youth" by Gurgen Mahari, Hrant Matevosyan's "Autumn Sun", "Trees", "Green Field," and other works.

When we compare the results obtained from different libraries, we see that among contemporary Armenian writers, many patrons read especially the novels and short stories of Ashot Aghababyan, Syune Sevada, Gohar Navasardyan, and Ruben Yesayan. The preferences of readers were also somewhat influenced by the nationwide “Reading Marathon” event organized by the National Library in April, which was dedicated to the 150th anniversary of Avetik Isahakyan’s birth. Isahakyan’s poetry collections appeared in dozens of libraries. In general, April turned out to be “poetic.” Poetry collections are rarely found in the top ten lists of libraries. However, in addition to Isahakyan, the April lists also include books by Paruyr Sevak, Vahan Teryan, and Hamo Sahyan.

Regional libraries have a dominant visibility due to the formation of the book map. Therefore, let’s continue to present which authors and books were preferred by readers of individual community libraries in April. The most frequently served book in the Stepanavan community library in April was Paruyr Sevak’s poem “The Silent Bell Tower.” The next three authors are Shakespeare, Hrant Matevosyan, and Hamo Sahyan. The top ten also include "French Classicism", "Armenian Genocide Chronicles", "The Hand with the Poison Pen" by Agatha Christie, "The Stranger" by Albert Camus, and "The Fool" by Raffi.
