”Lawrencians are reading ‘On Tyranny’ to gain a better understanding of unchecked political actions, and many are still finding escape into strong science fiction, fantasy, and romantic worlds,” the Raven Book Store writes of this week’s bestsellers.
“From most of this list, it appears people are looking for a mental escape!” the Raven Book Store writes.
”The TikTok (RIP) sensation ’Fourth Wing’ has been selling like hotcakes as we anticipate our all-day launch party for the series’ third installment — ’Onyx Storm’ — from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 21!” the Raven Book Store writes.
”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 Raven Book Store writes of the top 10 bestsellers for all of 2024.
”The new Robert Dinsdale book on Massachusetts Street is still selling like hotcakes, and Larry McElwain’s memoir of being the town undertaker has also piqued a lot of interest!” the Raven Book Store writes.
“We definitely switched over to a Christmas gift-heavy bestseller list pretty much as soon as middle of November and Thanksgiving week hit,” the Raven Book Store writes.
”Another ’only book store in the world with this Top 10 list,’” the Raven Book Store writes, as Lawrence locals including Louise Krug, Kelly Kindscher and Meg Heriford have books on this edition.
”The top 2 books on this list are from a couple of incredible events we had in the last couple of weeks. We are also starting to get a peek of the coming holiday season’s hot titles!” the Raven Book Store writes.
“All of these books are either from recent events, local authors, or spooky-adjacent for Halloween! We love how supportive our community is when it comes to events,” the Raven Book Store writes of this week’s bestsellers.
”Pretty much everything on this week’s bestseller list is either a blockbuster new release or a book from one of our fantastic recent events,” the Raven Book Store writes.
