There are no colouring books in our top ten this week!

Our number one bestseller is Rosie Waterland’s darkly comic memoir of her traumatic childhood The Anti-Cool Girl. Rosie headlined two fantastic sold-out events at our shops last week – here’s a picture of her with her many lovely fans. Right now, you can buy signed copies of Rosie’s book through our website and in our Carlton shop, and you can read an edited extract from the book here.

Readings’ favourite (obsession is probably not too strong of a word) Elena Ferrante has two books in our top ten this week – the newly released The Story of the Lost Child, which is the fourth and final book in her Neapolitan series, and My Brilliant Friend, which is the first book in the series. If you’re a Ferrante fan, or are interested in becoming one, you might want to come along to our Ferrante Fever event this week.
