Just over a week ahead of the release of the film adaptation of If I Stay, Gayle Forman's novel, once again, took the top spot on Apple's iBooks bestseller list. Still buoyed by the debut of the movie trailer for Fifty Shades of Grey, the book landed at #2 for the week ended August 11, and thanks to the buzz around the Starz series based on Diana Gabaldon's Outlander books, the first title, 1991's Outlander, hit #3.
