SFFH on Bestseller Lists: 10 December 2000
|
Caleb Carr's Killing Time, which debuted on a couple lists three weeks ago, appears this week on three more lists, very strongly on two of them: #1 at WP, #3 at LAT.
Two paperback reprints debut this week: Orson Scott Card's Ender's Shadow and Dean Koontz's False Memory. Jonathan Lethem's Motherless Brooklyn maintains a hold on a couple trade paperback lists.
Once again this week, Amazon's general hardcover and paperback lists do not appear to have been updated.

The table compiles SFFH books placing 15th or higher on general bestseller lists (30th or higher on the combined USA Today list).
The current rank of each book and the change since last week are shown, where:
= same as last week
+ or - with number: difference since last week
+ back on list
++ new on list
x no longer on list (number of x's: weeks off list)
() below cut-off but noted anyway
-- previously noted anyway but now nowhere in sight
nyp Not-yet-published (pre-ordered)
Columns show ranks on lists from, respectively, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, USA Today, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, London Times, Publishers Weekly, BookSense, Amazon.com (fiction lists), and Amazon UK (fiction lists). All lists rank hardcovers and paperbacks separately, except for the USA Today list, which is a single list combining fiction and nonfiction in all formats. Some books are on separate general [nonfiction] lists (gen), children's lists (ch), trade paperback lists (tpb), or mass market paperback lists (mm), as indicated.
