'Mein Kampf' tops Amazon ebook charts

Controversial book 'Mein Kampf' has topped Amazon ebook charts, as it apparently follows a similar trend to that of the book '50 Shades of Grey' and other romance novels.

Chris Faraone, political author and journalist claimed that while the book's print sales have remained minimal for many years, it's various eBook versions consistently appear on various Top 20 lists for retailers like Amazon or iTunes, the Independent reported.

Faraone, who writes for The Phoenix in Boston said that people might not have wanted to buy ' Mein Kampf' at Borders or have it delivered to their home or displayed on their living room bookshelf, let alone get spotted reading it on a subway.

However, he added that judging by hundreds of customer comments online, readers like that digital copies can be quietly perused then dropped into a folder or deleted.
