It’s still the Theo of Golden/Project Hail Mary show in bestseller land, with both titles still topping all the charts. Matt Dinniman’s Dungeon Crawler Carl made a return to the bestseller lists this week—perhaps the news of the ebooks coming to libraries gave it a boost? In newcomers, we have the Lena Dunham memoir that’s already launched a thousand thinkpieces; the second installment in David Baldacci’s Walter Nash series; the latest from journalist and master storyteller Patrick Radden Keefe; and a book from Elise Stefanik, whom I won’t spend any more time talking about than this.
This list (still) continues to lack diversity on many levels, including (still) being disproportionately by white authors. Some Indie Bestsellers you should know about are Kin by Tayari Jones, The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali, and One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This by Omar El Akkad.
To get these numbers, we look at the New York Times, both Combined Print & E-Book Fiction and Combined Print & E-Book Nonfiction lists; Amazon Charts, both Fiction and Nonfiction; Publishers Weekly; USA Today; and Indie Bestsellers, Fiction and Nonfiction, both Paperback and Hardcover.
