Charts Non-fiction
Run in September 2016. Military memoirs are becoming a genre of their own, with Middleton’s US equivalent, Chris Kyle, sell- ing 215,044 copies of Ameri- can Sniper in 2015 (helped by a Bradley Cooper-led film adaptation) and Tom Marcus’ Soldier Spy shiſting over 150,000 copies across print formats in 2016 and 2017. Adam Kay’s This is Going to Hurt took the Paperback Non-Fiction number one for a
seventh consecutive week, sell- ing 13,312 copies and cracking the 100,000 copies sold mark. Excluding Joe Wicks, this is the longest run in the chart’s top spot since Millie Marot- ta’s Animal Kingdom in 2015 (remember the adult colour- ing book trend?) Kay is still outselling the rest of the chart by at least 50%, with Russell Brand’s Recovery in a distant second place. Another military memoir, Kim Hughes’ Painting the Sand—by the British Army’s most decorated bomb-disposal expert—cracked the top five for the first time, in a testosterone-heavy top 10. Only Reni Eddo-Lodge’s Why I’m No Longer Talk- ing to White People About Race in seventh broke up the boys’ club as one of just
two female authors in the chart. It’s almost as if Father’s Day is approaching.
Though the Children’s chart was wall-to-wall Walliams, )
Small Publishers Chart
The Small Publishers Chart is compiled using only titles issued by publishers that had sales of less than £5m in the previous
calendar year through Nielsen’s TCM. Unlike the Heatseekers chart, which is divided each week by genre (into Fiction, Non- Fiction and Children’s), the Small Publishers chart encompasses all titles.
