Then there’s the long-awaited The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese, author of Cutting for Stone - his last book came out in 2008! Of course, the newest James Patterson made the list: The 23rd Midnight. There’s Meet Me at the Lake, the newest book from Carley Fortune, author of Every Summer After. This week has five new releases, which shows what a big month May is for new releases. New additions to the list this week are bolded. 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. That’s where we come in: we’ve looked at the four biggest bestseller lists and noted the overlap to get an overview of the biggest books of the moment. It’s Monday, which means it’s time to look at the books everyone has been buying lately! This is a simple question with a strangely complicated answer, because every bestseller list uses its own cryptic system of data points and criteria.
