It's that time of year again where everyone makes a list—some check it twice—of the gifts they want for the holiday season. Amazon is no different with its wish list function. The website keeps track of the top items people are adding to their wish lists heading into holiday season, and they display them on their "Most Wished For" page.
Amazon breaks the items down into the most popular toys and games, movies and TV, electronics, books, video games and CDs and vinyl. Some of our favorite items made the list, including the Echo Dot and Echo. Some of mine did too, because I really need to see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and ever since my roommate got an Echo Dot, I've been sitting in his room talking to Alexa like she's an old friend.
And I didn't say this, but I'm a huge P!nk fan, so if you're reading, mom.
Here are the top 18 things that are on people's Amazon wish lists for 2017.
