The Girl on the Train lines up in first and second place

The Girl on the Train (Black Swan) has run away with both first and second place in the Official UK Top 50, according to Nielsen BookScan’s Total Consumer Market. Combined, the paperback and film tie-in edition for Paula Hawkins' book sold 61,169 copies for £282,349, pushing Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (Little, Brown) into a distant third, on 15,577 copies sold.

It is The Girl on the Train paperback’s eighth week in the top spot and its 18th in the Mass Market Fiction number one, its volume jumped 41% to 32,382 copies—an extra 9,480 copies on the week before. The film tie-in edition sold an additional 10,904 units on the previous week.

Joe “Broella” Sugg’s second graphic novel Username: Regenerated (Hodder & Stoughton) shifted 12,984 copies to go straight into the Original Fiction number one, amid a week of competition from veteran authors. The YouTuber's debut Username: Evie–the first book Sugg collaborated on with a team that includes illustrator Amrit Birdi and writer Matt Whyman— became the first graphic novel ever to hit the Original Fiction number one last year, and currently stands as the second bestselling graphic novel of all time in the UK.

Robert Harris’ Conclave (Hutchinson), Wilbur Smith’s Pharaoh (HarperCollins) and Victoria Hislop’s Cartes Postales (Headline) all flocked into the Original Fiction top 20 below Joe Sugg, edging the previous week's number one Jilly Cooper’s Mount! (Bantam) into fifth place.

Another big hardback out last week was Katie Price’s latest autobiography Reborn (Century). Despite the glamour model being birthed from an egg at the launch, the memoir failed to knock Guinness World Records 2017 from the Hardback Non-Fiction number one, selling just 467 copies fewer than the perennial Christmas hit. And in the "there's no such thing as bad publicity department", footballer Joey Barton’s memoir No Nonsense (Simon & Schuster) debuted in the top 50 (45th place) in the week he was given a 21-day suspension by his current club Rangers for getting into a training ground bust-up with a teammate.

Joe Wicks’ Lean in 15: The Shape Plan (Bluebird) was knocked off the Paperback Non-Fiction number one after 14 straight weeks—to be replaced by Wicks’ debut Lean in 15. The Body Coach has now spent 36 weeks since December 2015 in the paperback top spot.

The print market continued to flourish, with last week’s value jumping 6.4% to top £30m for the second time this year (after the week Cursed Child was released). 2016’s average selling price has now surpassed 2015’s average for the full year, hitting £7.96— with the most valuable time of the year still to come.
