Three Australian books top last week’s list of bestselling books. Force of Nature is a second addictive, crime thriller from bestselling author Jane Harper. First Person is the new novel from Man Booker Prize winner Richard Flanagan – a razor-sharp and genre-bending read about the very nature of writing. The Trauma Cleaner is Sarah Krasnostein’s moving biography of Sandra Pankurst and her work as a trauma cleaner.

Last week also saw the release of Jennifer Egan’s extraordinary work of historical fiction, Manhattan Beach, Dan Brown’s latest Robert Langdon thriller, Origin, and Rupi Kaur’s gorgeous new poetry collection, The Sun and Her Flowers – all of which appear here.
