Former First Lady Michelle Obama's debut book, Becoming, has become the year's bestseller to date and doesn't look likely to be leaving the #1 slot in the Apple Books store anytime soon. John Grisham, David Baldacci, and Lee Child all remain in the top five this week as well, with Nora Roberts's Of Blood and Bone moving up to #3.
