It’s Sunday all over again, and according to this week’s Publishers Weekly Best-Seller List, we’ve got one new book at the top of one of the four major best seller lists.“Women, Food and God” by Geneen Roth, pictured at right, replaced "Sh*t My Dad Says" by Justin Halpern as the No. 1 book on the hardcover nonfiction list.
“The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest” by Stieg Larsson retained the No. 1 spot on the hardcover fiction list. His book, “The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo,” also retained the top spot on the mass market paperback list. "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert also retained the No. 1 spot on the trade paperbacks best seller list.
There are five books on this week’s hardcover fiction best seller list that weren’t on that list last week. Those books (and their positions on this week’s list) include "Tough Customer: A Novel: by Sandra Brown (2), "Veil of Night: A Novel" by Linda Howard (5), "The Vigilantes" by W.E.B.
