Can a group of books be one of the best-selling books in the nation? [closed]

Is this sentence grammatically correct?

Dystopian books are one of the best-selling books in the nation.

Solution 1:

No. As you suspect, a group of books cannot be "one of the ... books." What's meant is probably something like:

Dystopian books are among the best selling books in the nation.

Or

Dystopian books are the best selling books in the nation.

Solution 2:

You would be better to avoid the word 'books', as they are physical objects which is not really what you are talking about. Dystopian refers to the story inside the book. Think of "I have bought a book" (physical object) ~ "Oh... what is it?" (what does it contain?)

"Dystopian novels are/fiction is (to clarify that you are talking about a story rather than a 'a book') one of the best selling genres in the nation"
