What's with best sellers?
On a recent visit to Borders and Hudson News bookstores, I observed with extra attention as to how many books have the line "New York Times bestselling author or best seller". To my surprise 18 out of the 20 books stacked on the shelves had this line. Isn't that amazing how every book published in the U.S is a best seller?
Well here is the list I follow every week. " The Da Vinci Code still tops the list after an year. Last evening curious to know how it was faring in India, I stopped at a roadside bookstore and was disappointed to see the customized paperback version of the book . Accustomed to seeing the red covered book, it didn't appeal much! I MISS Borders across the street..no easily accessible book store where I live. The next book on my list is The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami. I've read his "Wild Sheep Chase".
