J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (US: Scholastic) debuts, predictably, at #1 on several lists. It's #1 at USA Today and San Francisco Chronicle, and #1 on New York Times's children's list -- a list launched 3 years ago to keep the previous Potter book from dominating its hardover fiction list.
In Britain, publisher Bloomsbury has cleverly issued the book in two editions, a regular and an 'adult', so that BookScan dutifully categories each edition appropriately. Thus the regular edition is #1 on the children's list this week, and the 'adult edition' is #1 on the fiction list.
BookSense has not updated this week, still as of Monday evening; and Wall Street Journal's list is out-of-date as posted by CNN.

This cell color indicates rankings on children's bestsellers lists |
This cell color indicates rankings on pre-publication or 'not yet published' lists |
[Italics and brackets, and/or this cell color, indicate stale data -- rankings from one or more weeks before -- and do not contribute to the cumulative weeks on any list totals] |
Key:
The table shows the current rank of each book and the change since last week, 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)
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, and BookScan, which combines hardcovers and paperbacks within lists for fiction, nonfiction, and children's. Dates shown are posted dates, except those in parentheses, which are dates compiled. New York Times posts its list one week in advance of print publication.
Note that some sources do not compile paperback bestsellers, and some exclude YA books (like the Harry Potter series) from their hardcover and paperback fiction lists.
