Part 2 of Stephen King's 'Under the Dome' appears on best-sellers list

Today is Sunday, so that means that it’s time for my weekly breakdown of this week’s Publishers Weekly Best-Sellers Lists. According to those lists, there are three new books at the top of the four major best-sellers lists this week.

"NYPD Red" by James Patterson and Marshall Karp replaced "Missing You" by Harlan Coben as the No. 1 book on the hardcover fiction best-sellers list.

"The Hungry Girl Diet" by Lisa Lillien replaced "The Body Book" by Cameron Diaz as the top book on the hardcover nonfiction best-sellers list.

"Shadow Spell" by Nora Roberts replaced "Mistress" by James Patterson and David Ellis as the top book on the trade paperbacks best-sellers list.

"Daddy's Gone A Hunting" by Mary Higgins Clark remained the top book on the mass market paperback best-sellers list for the second straight week.

There were three new books on this week’s hardcover fiction best-sellers list that weren’t on the list last week. Those books (and their places on the list) included "NYPD Red" by James Patterson and Marshall Karp (1), "Blossom Street Brides" by Debbie Macomber (3) and "Tempting Fate" by Jane Greer (13).

Those books included "Forget Me Not" by Fern Michaels (2), "The Devaney Brothers" by Sherryl Woods (4), "Dash of Peril" by Lori Foster (5), "Best Kept Secrets" by Sandra Brown (8), "Dark Lycan" by Christine Feehan (13), "Under the Dome: Part 2” by Stephen King (14) and "Waiting on You" by Kristan Higgins (15).
