2020 Top 40

2020's Top 40 List was, as expected, topped by Barack Obama's autobiography, far outpacing second place.   Our customers were extremely interested in learning more about race and antiracism this year as reflected by many of the nonfiction (and fiction!) books on the list.  The pandemic also helped drive a number of cookbooks to the top, and Mystery to a top selling category  - though aside from Louise Penny, no one author or book dominated that list - while perfecting your sourdough you were also busy working your way through all twenty-two  of No. 1 Ladie's Detective Agency, or  Ilona Whishaw's series or even hitting the alphabet through Y with Sue Grafton!
