Bruce Pascoe’s Dark Emu appeared in our top 10 bestsellers list for every week of 2019 (except for one week when we ran out of stock) and so it’s only fitting he’s at the top of this week’s list as we close out the year.

Other bestselling books from the past week include three terrific Australian novels (The Weekend, Damascus and Bruny), one of the two 2019 Booker winners (Girl, Woman, Other), a charming work of Japan fiction (Before the Coffee Gets Cold), and Delia Owens’s much loved Where the Crawdads Sing, now available in a smaller format.
