The new Stephen King book is one of four new additions on the list of most sold Amazon books. Here’s the full list from April 19 to 25.

Four new books made it to the list of most sold Amazon books from April 19 to 25. Meanwhile, the Top 3 saw a re-entry of a book that has only just made it on the list of most read books. Here’s a look at the full list.

We’ll start with the re-entry. Dune by Frank Herbert made it into third place, keeping Little Fires Everywhere and Where the Crawdads Sing in the top two spots. It did mean children’s book The Bad Seed lost a place, but that’s nothing considering some of the movement.

The Easter books are off the list as four new books entered. One of those was Stephen King’s latest novel, If It Bleeds. The novel is one that King has read on social media, possibly gaining more attention than it necessarily would have done otherwise.

The Girl Beneath the Sea by Andrew Mayne and The Boy from the Woods by Harlan Coben saw the biggest movement throughout the week, dropping 10 places each. We could see both off the list this week.

Meanwhile, the Harry Potter books saw mixed results. While the first two books dropped, the third book, titled The Prisoner of Azkaban, gained two places after its re-entry last week.
