After weeks of nothing new joining the list of most read Amazon books, there were two new additions last week. Here’s a look at the full list.

We’ve gone a few weeks where the books on the list of most read Amazon books have moved between themselves. There have been some reentries, but nothing new on the list. That changed last week, with two new additions joining the list.

Jack Carr’s new novel Only the Dead joined the list in seventh place. It’s not too surprising with how popular his books are. Whether it will stay on the list is another thing.

The other new addition was further down the list. Just outside the Top 10, The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese entered. It was only a matter of time after it had been on the list of most sold books for a couple of weeks now.

Demon Copperhead up, lots of others down

While the Top 2 remained the same, Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver disrupted the rest of the Top 5. It moved up three spots to get into the Top 3, pushing Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. rowling down a spot each.

Happy Place by Emily Henry was knocked out of the Top 5, moving down one spot to land in sixth place. Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano just held onto a Top 10 spot after dropping two places.

Further down the list Things We Hide from the Light by Lucy Score dropped three places to land outside of the Top 10. However, Things We Never Got Over, also by Lucy Score, gained one spot to get back into the Top 15.

The biggest movers on the list were Simply Lies by David Baldacci and The Last THing He Told Me by Laura Dave. Both dropped five places on the list.
