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.
|
Stephen King's Under the Dome remains high on all lists, still ranking #1 at Washington Post, debuting at #2 at Los Angeles Times, and slipping to #2 at New York Times and Publishers Weekly.
Robert Jordan & Brandon Sanderson's The Gathering Storm slips a bit, but still ranks in the top ten on three fiction hardcover lists.
Debuting is David Weber & Eric Flint's Torch of Freedom (Baen), ranking #28 on the NYT fiction hardcover list.
