This week’s bestseller lists have a few new additions, including a new romantasy book from the Rachel Gilling, author of the One Dark Window series: The Knight and the Moth. We also have the first book in a new mystery series by Michael Connelly: Nightshade. On the nonfiction lists is Original Sin by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson as well as—surprisingly enough—a new Mark Twain biography.
As always, this is a list with a lack of diversity on many levels, including being disproportionately by white authors. Some other bestsellers you should know about are Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan (Amazon), Marsha: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P. Johnson by Tourmaline (USA Today and Indie Bestsellers), Empire of AI by Karen Hao (NYT), and The Serviceberry by Robin Wall Kimmerer (Indie Bestsellers).
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; and Indie Bestsellers, Fiction and Nonfiction, both Paperback and Hardcover. New additions to the list this week are bolded.
