What were the read Amazon books from May 17 to 23?

When it comes to the most read Amazon books of the week, we’re used to seeing little change. From May 17 to 23, there was only one new book to make it to the list. However, there was plenty of movement elsewhere.

James Patterson and Maxine Paetro had the only new book on the list. The 20th Victim joins the list in 18th place. The question is whether it will move up or down the list this week.

More from Amazon Books

Apart from the top three remaining the same, there was plenty of movement elsewhere on the list. Where the Crawdads Sing moved back up a spot, hoping to take over the Top 3 this week. Meanwhile, Walk the Wire and Camino Winds dropped down the list. We also saw some movement from the Harry Potter books further down the list—all seeing positive movement.

Further down the list, we saw the biggest movers. Stephen King’s If It Bleeds dropped four places, making it the largest drop of the week. Masked Prey by John Sandford wasn’t too far behind, dropping three places to wind up in last place.

Apart from the Top 3, Little Fires Everywhere and The Giver of Stars remain the only two non-movers of the week. Will they keep their positions this week?
