There’s only one title appearing on this weekly bestseller round up for the first time: Not Quite Dead Yet. Holly Jackson is well known for her YA thrillers, including A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, which was recently adapted into a Netflix series. This is her first adult novel, and it’s about a woman who is attacked and has only days left to live—days she plans to spend solving her own murder.

This list continues to lack of diversity on many levels, including being disproportionately by white authors. Some Indie Bestsellers you should know about are A Witch’s Guide to Magical Innkeeping by Sangu Mandanna, Crying in H Mart: A Memoir by Michelle Zauner, and The Serviceberry by Robin Wall Kimmerer.

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.
