Sales Snapshot

Wildfire, the second new adult romance in BookTok sensation Hannah Grace’s Maple Hills series, is the #1 book in the country and across several but not all geographic regions. In the Northeast, Going Infinite, Michael Lewis’s look at FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, came out on top (as our review predicted, the book was indeed “sure to be debated”). Design studio MinaLima’s interpretation of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was the West Coast’s favorite. And the mountain region, which includes Utah, embraced the self-published 52 Modern Manners for Today’s Teens, Vol. 2 by Brooke Romney, a Mormon lifestyle and parenting blogger.
