In at #2 is Broken Silence, the second romance in the Silence series by Natasha Preston, who also took the #17 spot with the third book in the series, Players, Bumps and Cocktail Sausages. At #3 is the novel Diary Of An Oxygen Thief by Anonymous, while Alessandra Torre comes in at #4 with the romance Hollywood Dirt.
And rounding out our top five is Hal Elrod’s self-help title The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8AM).
On a list traditionally dominated by romance and erotica titles, a few authors writing in other genres were able to break into the top 25: Richard L. Sanders's sci-fi novel The Phoenix Darkness comes in at #6; Camilla Chafer's mystery Trigger Snappy finds a home at # 14; and a treble of YA novels -- Chanda Hahn's Forever (#8), Quinn Loftis's Surrender (#10), and Karen Lynch's Refuge (#12) -- make their way onto September's list.
