The month of January is coming to an end which is hard to believe. And we have the list of the best selling books of the week in California for week for as we head into February!
This list covers the state of California only as the data comes from the California Independent Booksellers Alliance (CALIBA).
The two best selling hardcover books of the week were two different versions of Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros. The deluxe limited edition was the fan favorite and it makes sense because fans won’t be able to buy them after they run out.
While I expected Onyx Storm to be the best selling book of the week, I didn’t think it would take the top two spots. Iron Flame charted at ten, giving Yarros three of the ten bestselling hardcover fiction book.
The best selling paperback was Orbital by Samantha Harvey. You can see the full list below!
