Note from the Times: This bestseller list comes to us straight from The Raven Book Store in Lawrence. See other editions of the list here.
I know I’m a bit of a broken record on all of this, but this is another one-bookstore-in-the-world bestseller list.
Lawrencians love local titles, and they definitely LOVE Louise Erdrich and Robin Wall Kimmerer, too. The Serviceberry came out on Nov. 19 and was easily the quickest climb to the second spot!
Thank you all for a wonderful 2024! See you in 2025.
