The first full week of May saw the new John Grisham book join the list of most read Amazon books for the week. It also saw plenty of movement elsewhere.

We’re into a new week and that means the list of most read Amazon books has changed again. There was movement all over the list, with books climbing and new books joining. Here’s a look at the full list from May 3 to May 9.

The new John Grisham book was the only new book to join the list. Titled Camino Winds, it joined the list in 13th place. There is a chance that it will gain places on the list in the coming week, but it has some competition.

Stephen King’s If It Bleeds and David Baldacci’s Walk the Wire moved further up the list for a second week in a row. Walk the Wire‘s movement saw it land in second place, knocking Little Fires Everywhere down a place.

The Harry Potter books also saw some movement on the list. This isn’t all that surprising as readers move onto other books in the series. However, the continue to take up the Top 10 for the most part.

There was one reentry on the list. Andrew Mayne’s The Girl Beneath the Sea made its way back on the list, but in 20th place. Will it remain there during this week?
