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 one new book at the top of the four major best-sellers lists this week.
"Inferno" by Dan Brown replaced "Dead Ever After: A Sookie Stackhouse Novel" by Charlaine Harris as the No. 1 book on the hardcover fiction best-sellers list.
"Happy, Happy, Happy: My Life and Legacy as the Duck Commander" by Phil Robertson and Mark Schlabach retained the top spot on the hardcover nonfiction best-sellers list for the second straight week.
"Stolen Prey" by John Sandford retained the No. 1 spot on the mass market paperback best-sellers list for the second straight week.
"Control" by Glenn Beck was the No. 1 book on the trade paperbacks best-sellers list for the third straight week.
There were two 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 "Inferno" by Dan Brown (1) and "Vader's Little Princess" by Jeffrey Brown (15).
There were five books on this week’s hardcover nonfiction best-sellers list that weren’t on the list last week. They included "The Guns at Last Light" by Rick Atkinson (2), "My Beef with Meat" by Rip Esselstyn (11), "My Greek Drama" by Gianna Angelopoulos (12), "The Outsider" by Jimmy Connors (14) and "The Fast Metabolism Diet" by Haylie Pomroy (15).
There were two books on this week’s mass market paperbacks best-sellers list that weren’t on the list last week. They included "The Lost Years" by Mary Higgins Clark (13) and "Calico Joe" by John Grisham (14).
There were three books on this week’s trade paperbacks best-sellers list that weren’t on the list last week. They included "Zoo" by James Patterson, Michael Ledwidge (4), "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" by Guy Fieri (10) and "A Dog's Journey" by W. Bruce Cameron (14).
