KEY
The table shows the current rank of each book and the change since last week, where:
= same as last week
+/- change since last week
+ back on list
++ new on list
x no longer on list (number of x's: weeks off list)
All lists rank hardcovers and paperbacks separately, except for the USA Today list, which is a single list combining fiction and nonfiction in all formats. Dates shown are posted dates, except those in parentheses, which are dates compiled. New York Times posts its list one week in advance of print publication.
Note that some sources do not compile paperback bestsellers, and some exclude YA books (like the Harry Potter series) from their hardcover and paperback fiction lists.
|
Carlos Ruiz Zafón's The Angel's Game remains the strongest genre presence on general lists this week, ranking on all five print lists (and in the top 10 on four of them) and on two Amazon lists.
In paperback, Charlaine Harris remains solid; all eight of her Sookie Stackhouse novels ranks on at least one list again this week, as they have for most of the past half-year.
