There is a slight rearrangement


at the top of the Audible Top 10 this week, with The Let Them Theory returning to the top of the chart, pushing Suzanne Collins down a place. It’s not the only Mel Robbins title to do well, with 2017’s The 5 Second Rule climbing two places to eighth spot. Meanwhile, Gary Stevenson’s The Trading Game: A Confession – currently performing strongly in the Paperback Non-Fiction chart – sees a return to the Top 10, settling at fifth place this week.
