I don't think I've ever seen our new releases all consistently go up in the charts at this point in the cycle. Maybe people are buying for reading material at the moment...

No, it's just the effect of Omund buying a copy of everything at once. I would assume by the numbers that no more books have been sold apart from that single copy.

At the moment, I have a lot of free time to fill because my volunteering has been shuttered because of the pandemic. No cases in the western Isles yet.

Surprised to see YAHITG enter the bestsellers chart - I got the impression that needed more than one or two purchases like the shifts in the new releases chart. Less surprised about Drake's Drum as that's always sold well.

In normal times, it takes 2-3 purchases to break into the UK bestseller list. As I noted in a post in the coronavirus thread, though, Amazon UK book sales have dramatically slowed down over the last few days. I suspect that 2 recent purchases would be enough.

This feels surprising to me because you'd think people would buy ebooks due to being stuck at home, but it may be concern over disposable income and prioritising necessities.
