With the exception of the manga phenomenon Inoxtag, the top of the literature ranking is identical to the general one. In the first two places, two foreign novels, which had not happened for many years. The cleaning lady of Freida McFadden et The midwife of Auschwitz d’Anna Stuarttwo Books published in paperback (by J’ai Lu). Just behind, two best-selling regulars, Joel Dicker with A wild animal (Rosie & Wolfe), et Guillaume Mussotwice, in large format with someone else (Calmann-Lévy) a remarkable comeback after a break in 2023, and in paperback with Angelic.
At all costs
They are ahead of the Goncourt winners, Camel Daoud (HourisGallimard) and Renaudot, Gail Faye (JacarandaGrasset). Melissa Da Costa et Virginie Grimaldi both in the Pocket Book, complete the top 10. With, between them, Mona’s eyes(Albin Michel), the well-documented story of Thomas Schlesser. Further in the ranking, the equally well-documented novel by Philippe Collin, The Ritz Bartender also at Albin Michel as Tata of Valérie Perrin. Also note, a second Mélissa Da Costa and a second Joël Dicker in the pockets as Secrets of the housekeeper. But also the novel of Laëtitia Colombani (The braidPaperback). While Sarah Rivens (Lakestone, Vol 1, HLab) ou Colleen Hoover (ForeverHugo Poche) ensure the presence of romance which nevertheless does not devour the ranking. Finally While the coffee is still hot (Paperback) by Toshikazu Kawaguchi et Le Mage du Kremlin (Folio) of Giuliano da Empoli bring up the rear, still in their pocket.
