It’s Sunday, so that means that it’s time for my weekly review of this week’s Publishers Weekly Best-Seller List. According to the list, there are four new books at the top of the four major best-sellers lists this week.
"Kill Shot" by Vince Flynn replaced "Home Front" by Kristin Hannah as the No. 1 book on the hardcover fiction best-sellers list.
"Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America" by Mark R. Levin replaced "American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History" by Chris Kyle, Jim DeFelice and Scott McEwen as the top book on the hardcover nonfiction best-sellers list.
"44 Charles Street" by Danielle Steel replaced "The Capture of the Earl of Glencrae" by Stephanie Laurens as the top book on the mass market paperback best-sellers list.
"The Help" by Kathryn Stockett replaced "Night Road" by Kristin Hannah as the No. 1 book on the trade paperbacks best-sellers list.
