In the publishing business, we get the bestseller lists early -- in the case of The New York Times, a Sunday cover-dated list is generally circulating through publishing offices on the Thursday of the week previous (ten days earlier). And so I have the May 27th lists here, and these are the genre titles on them:

On the Hardcover Fiction list, it's the same cast as last week:

• The Yiddish Policemen's Union by Michael Chabon, #3
• The Children of Hurin by J.R.R. Tolkien, #4
• All Together Dead by Charlaine Harris, #13
• and No Humans Involved by Kelley Armstrong, #24 (on the extended list)

The Paperback Fiction list is also very similar to last week's:

• The Husband (a non-supernatural thriller/horror novel) by Dean Koontz, #1
• The Road by Cormac McCarthy, #3
• Born in Death by J.D. Robb, #10

And, on the various Children's lists, Stephenie Meyer's New Moon is still at #1 on the "Chapter Books" list (essentially the Young Adult fiction bestseller list, though other things are included). The #1 Children's paperback is Christopher Paolini's Eldest, and the #1 series this week is Rick Riordan's "Percy Jackson & the Olympians."
