The Sunday Times Bestsellers List — the UK’s definitive book sales chart

The Sunday Times

The Sunday Times Bestseller List is the oldest and most influential book sales chart in the UK, and the one that every author wants to be on. The listings are based on data collected each Saturday for the following Sunday by Nielsen BookScan (which has been collecting digital data since 1998) and the chart is the most accurate and comprehensive estimation of book sales in the country.

Tackle!’s appearance in the fiction hardbacks chart marks Jilly Cooper’s return to the bestseller lists for the first time since 2017.

● Rebecca Yarros’s Iron Flame was the UK’s bestselling book last week, scoring the biggest weekly sale for an adult fantasy novel since records began in the late 1990s.

● Boy George and Barbra Streisand
