Monday look at Best Seller Lists

Every Monday morning I check the bestseller lists at New York Times and the Wall Street Journal because I usually end up adding something to my TBR list. Here’s a comparison of the Hardcover Fiction list. (Wall Street Journal only covers hardcover.)

Both lists have the following books in their top 5:

• “Worst Case” Patterson/Ledwidge (#1 on both)
• “The Help” Kathryn Stockett (#2 on both)
• “The Lost Symbol” Dan Brown (#3 on NYT, #4 on WSJ)
• “Winter Garden” Kristin Hannah (#4 on NYT, #5 on WSJ)

The differences – “Flirt” by Laura Hamiliton is # 5 on NYT & #11  on WSJ. The WSJ rounds out its list with “The Last Olympian” by Rick Riordan at the #3 spot.

The other fiction categories on NYT are Paperback Trade Fiction and Paperback Mass Market Fiction. I’ve added “The Lovely Bones” (Alice Sebold) and a couple of Nicholas Sparks titles to my To Be Read list. What about you? Do you see something that you’d like to read?
