I chose the fiction bestsellers because, and when you go there you can check out the other genres I believe they are off to the left, fiction is a favorite genre of mine right behind horror. Let me rephrase that. Good fiction. Also I chose to put up the bestsellers because I do not keep track of best sellers. I may know or hear of one or two. I know so many Independent authors that I am usually reading their work. And the more known books, I do not bother to check if they are on the best seller list. I feel sometimes about bestsellers like I do about big box office movies...it is all hype. Now I know that is not always true, but I think people buy into things a lot. So as far as me and bestsellers go, I would have to already know the author, get it for free, or have a very good friend recommend it. I did sign up to the Penguin newsletter. I have found a lot of books I like have been published by them. And yes I realize what a huge company they are. I have a lot of other publishing companies I get newsletters from also. So maybe I will make it part of my new year's resolution to take a peek every few weeks or so at the best sellers. I still say if I was meant to read a book, it will be shown to me somehow.
