SFFH on General Lists
29 November 2004
|
Little change this week; Philip Roth's The Plot Against America is still solid on 7 of the 9 lists charted here; Susanna Clarke's book is on 5 lists, as is Stephen King's The Dark Tower.
Two associational books rank on Amazon today, in advance of publication: Stewart O'Nan & Stephen King's Faithful : Two Diehard Boston Red Sox Fans Chronicle the Historic 2004 Season (Scribner), due in stores Dec. 2nd; and Michael Crichton's State of Fear (HarperCollins, Dec. 7th), a thriller involving "cutting-edge technology".

| This cell color indicates rankings on children's bestsellers lists |
This cell color indicates rankings of books based on pre-publication sales |
[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.
