“If this week’s bestseller list has a theme, it’s ’new books from fiction royalty,’” the Raven Book Store writes.

“Topping this week’s chart easily is Erin McDowell’s fantastic new cookbook ‘Savory Baking,’ of which we have loads of signed copies in-store!” the Raven Book Store writes.

“We’re still riding high on how great our 35th Anniversary Celebration was last month, and our bestseller list is too!” the Raven Book Store writes.

“September, a time of changing seasons. Summer to fall. Baseball to football. No school to school. Most importantly to us, September is the official beginning of Fall Books Season,” the Raven Book Store writes.

“Our No. 1 bestseller this week is Michael Travis’ ‘Celebrating Kansas Breweries,’ but the list as a whole might as well be called ‘Celebrating Kansas Books,'” the Raven Book Store writes.

New ordering policies from a corporate book store make it harder for debut authors to get hardcover books on shelves, the Raven Book Store writes. This week’s bestsellers present “an interesting study in contrast between independent and corporate bookselling.”

“This week’s top 4 are all from events we’ve done at the Raven! Thanks so much for attending our events and buying these great books!” the Raven Book Store writes.
