Amazon complied the fourth annual list by examining sales data of all book, magazine and newspaper sales in both print and Kindle format from April 2013 to April 2014, on a per capita basis in cities with more than 100,000 residents.
My current hometown made the list, but not the top ten. Considering how many cities there are in the US, I guess I can't complain. Here's the full list:
