Preteen girls -- and their grown-up moms -- are sinking their teeth into Stephenie Meyer's gothic "Twilight" books by the millions. Move over, J.K. Rowling.
"The Kite Runner" reclaims No. 1, Sue Monk Kidd reappears and Douglas Adams' classic "Hitchhiker's Guide" moves up, all on this week's list, courtesy of Powell's.
Phil Lesh debuts at No. 1, Sarah Vowell takes second with "Assassination Vacation," and Camille Paglia shows up, all on this week's list, courtesy of Powell's.
Readers pay tribute to Hunter S. Thompson, snatch up Shel Silverstein's posthumous children's book, and ponder the post-9/11 world with Ian McEwan. All on this week's list, courtesy of Powell's.
Jared Diamond's giganto-treatise on the future of civilization stays firmly at the top of the list; readers seek more answers to the universe in books from Haruki Murakami and Simon Singh.
"Bad Cat" moves up the list, making us wonder, Is this the next reality fad? Plus: It's all about satire and cooking for book lovers this holiday season.
Readers relive Samwise Gamgee's journey, discover the deeds of bad cats, and take a last-minute crash course in holiday cooking. Plus: Dan Brown continues his fall from grace.
Jeffrey Eugenides and Yann Martel return, Jon Stewart and Bob Dylan stay strong, and Philip Roth makes it onto the list. But Dan Brown stubbornly remains on top.
Three graphic novels valiantly attempt, but fail, to unseat Dan Brown. Plus: Kitty Kelley, Bill Bryson and Nirvana's bassist make it onto the list, courtesy of Powell's.
New paperbacks from Patricia Cornwell, Sara Paretsky and NPR's Iraq correspondent crack the top 20 -- but Dan Brown's supremacy remains unchallenged. All this courtesy of Powell's.
New paperbacks from David Baldacci and Terry Pratchett crack the list, plus "Curious Incident" and the other "9/11 Report" come on strong. Dan Brown? At the top, as usual. All courtesy of Powell's.
Dan Brown is down to just three books in the top 20 -- but one of them's back at the top. New travel paperbacks from J. Maarten Troost and Sarah Erdman crack the list, and so does the brand new "Dune" hardcover. All this and more, courtesy of Powell's.
Dan Brown finally loses the top spot -- to the nonfiction smash hit of the season. (It has lots of villains but no heroes.) Also, new paperbacks from Jhumpa Lahiri and some fantasy writer named Rowling make this week's list, courtesy of Powell's.
How many weeks at No. 1 for "Angels & Demons"? More than we can count. But there's lots of change lower down, with new titles from Jim Hightower, Tom Clancy, Elizabeth George, the "Dune" franchise and ubergeek Wil Wheaton, all courtesy of Powell's.
"The Da Vinci Code" falls all the way to No. 10! But there are two other Dan Brown titles above it, along with the 9/11 report, David Sedaris and Al Franken's new paperback. All on this week's list, courtesy of Powell's.
