The Bestselling Books of the Week, According to All the Lists
In Just Some Stupid Love Story, Molly and Seth were best friends-turned lovers until Molly ghosted Seth on the eve of their high school graduation. Now, they reunite again at their high school reunion 15 years later and make a bet: whoever can predict the fate of five couples before the next reunion must declare that the other is right about true love. The catch? The fifth couple is them.
Welcome to our Monday roundup of the week’s bestselling titles! This week’s bestseller lists are back to their usual with mostly familiar books from authors like Kristin Hannah, Stephen King, Sarah J. Maas, etc. There are so many fantastic books from new and new-to-the-bestseller-list authors dropping this summer, so here’s hoping for some more variety soon.
After a return to the bestseller charts likely linked to the release of the trailer for it’s film adaptation, It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover has dropped back off this week. We do have one newcomer, the latest in John Grisham’s Camino series. So like last week, we have a new title if not really a new author.
To get these numbers, we look at the USA Today overall top 10; Publishers Weekly overall top 10; The New York Times top 10, both Combined Print & E-Book Fiction and Combined Print & E-Book Nonfiction lists; Amazon Charts top 10, both Fiction and Nonfiction; and Indie Bestsellers top 10, Fiction and Nonfiction, both Paperback and Hardcover. New additions to the list this week are bolded.
Someday we’ll wrap up these introductory paragraphs with a celebration of this list’s diversity, but today is not that day. This continues to be a list with a lack of diversity on many levels, including being disproportionately by white authors. Some Indie Bestsellers you should know about are Lies and Weddings by Kevin Kwan, James by Percival Everett, and Master Slave Husband Wife by Ilyon Woo.
