Michelle Obama's runaway bestseller of a debut memoir, Becoming, stays on top of the Apple Books store in the second to last week of 2018.

Jack Carr's The Terminal List at #3, One Day in December by Josie Silver at #4, and John Grisham's The Reckoning, a big title in fiction late this year, round out the top five.
