Most read Amazon books last week: A small change to the Top 3

There was just a small change to the Top 3 on the list of most read Amazon books last week. Here’s a look at the full list of favorite reads.

The list of most read Amazon books doesn’t often change that much. That’s especially the case in the Top 3. The Harry Potter books remain popular with readers, so there tends to be one of them in the Top 3 at all times. Not this week, though.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling moved down a spot. The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese took over the No. 3 spot in the Top 3. Meanwhile, the top two spots remained unchanged.

Fourth Wing up, Waybound down

Waybound by Wil Wight entered well the previous week, but didn’t remain in the Top 10 last week. It dropped six places, landing in 16th place on the list. This was the joint largest drop of the week, Only the Dead by Jack Carr also lost six places.

There were a few books contending for the largest jump up. Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling, and Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros all gained three places throughout the list. Fourth Wing just narrowly missed out on a Top 5 spot.

The rest of the Harry Potter books were mixed. While Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets gained two spots to get back into the Top 15 and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince got back into the Top 10, there were some movers down, including Deathly Hallows and The Sorcerer’s Stone.
