Today is Sunday, so that means that it’s time for my weekly breakdown of this week’s Publishers Weekly Best-Sellers Lists. According to those lists, there is only one new book at the top of the four major best-sellers lists this week.
"Daddy's Gone a Hunting" by Mary Higgins Clark replaced "Starting Now" by Debbie Macomber as the No. 1 book on the hardcover fiction best-sellers list.
"Lean In" by Sheryl Sandberg remained the top book on the hardcover nonfiction best-sellers list for the fifth week in a row.
"The Best of Me" by Nicholas Sparks remained the top book on the mass market paperback best-sellers list for the second straight week.
"The Witness" by Nora Roberts remained the No. 1 book on the trade paperbacks best-sellers list for the second consecutive week.
There were five books on this week’s hardcover fiction best-sellers list that weren’t on that list lat week. They (and their places on the list) included "Daddy's Gone a Hunting" by Mary Higgins Clark (1), "Don't Go" by Lisa Scottoline (2), "Unintended Consequences" by Stuart Woods (4), "The Interestings" by Meg Wolitzer (13) and "Tapestry of Fortunes" by Elizabeth Berg (15).
There were seven books on this week’s hardcover nonfiction best-sellers list that weren’t on the list last week. They included "The Fast Metabolism Diet" by Haylie Pomroy (2), "Give and Take" by Adam Grant (7), "I Declare" by Joel Osteen (9), "Nature's Fortune" by Mark Tercek, Jonathan Adams (12), "The One Thing" by Gary Keller (13), "A Higher Call" by Adam Makos (14) and "Unsinkable" by Debbie Reynolds (15).
There was only one book on this week’s mass market paperbacks best-sellers list that wasn’t on the list last week - "You Don't Want to Know" by Lisa Jackson, which was No. 14 on the list.
There were two books on this week’s trade paperbacks best-sellers list that weren’t on the list last week. They included "Waking Up in Heaven" by Crystal McVea (12) and "Quiet" by Susan Cain (15).
As a reminder, I’m posting these lists each Sunday because they, as a whole, represent a great, contemporary recommended reading list.
