Out next week
With Scotland’s bookshops opening on 26th April, the market could see a similar U-shaped effect to last June, when English bookshops opened ahead of the rest of the UK’s. Sales slunk back down to average-if-healthy levels in the second week of post-lock- down trading, before
Scotland’s opening bumped them back up to eye-watering levels. If there wasn’t a tsunami of new releases out next week, Shuggie Bain would surely be destined for that top spot. Tim Marshall’s The Power of Geography was the highest new entry in the Top 50, charting third in the Hardback Non-fiction chart and topping the Small Publishers
top 10. Marshall’s 2016 mega-hit Prisoners of Geography has sold a whisker under 600,000 copies since its publication. It proved solidly consistent, charting in the Paperback Non-fiction top 20 for over a year. For the first time since August 2014,
The Official Highway Code reverse- parallel parked in the Paperback Non-fiction top spot. Driving tests resumed in England
and Wales last week, boosting the title by 70% in volume week on week, to 4,123 copies sold. The learner drivers’ bible last Continues overleaf
Small Publishers
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.
