USA Today's Top 150:

Ten books, down two from last week. Jeanette Walls's newest, The Silver Star leads the pack at #12, Gatsby falls out of the top three for the first time in weeks to #14, and The Light Between Oceans rounds out the top three at #42. The Book Thief shows up on the list again at #118, marking its 109th week on the list. Johanna Lindsey's newest historical romance hits the list at #128, and one of my childhood favorites, The Witch of Blackbird Pond, hits the list for the first time at #135.

On another note, 1984 made the bestseller list this week. Hmmm...wonder why?
