Reni Eddo-Lodge's Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race (Bloomsbury) has topped both of Amazon Charts' non-fiction rankings, holding the Most-Sold: Non-Fiction number one for a second week and also sensationally leapfrogging Michelle Obama's Becoming (Penguin) in Most-Read: Non-Fiction. Obama's memoir had held the top spot since the last week of January.
Anti-racism books surged to the top of the non-fiction charts, with Layla Saad's Me and White Supremacy (Quercus), Akala's Natives (Two Roads), Robin DiAngelo's White Fragility (Penguin) and Ibram X Kendi's How to Be an Antiracist (Vintage) joining Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People about Race in the Most-Sold: Non-Fiction top five.
Charlie Mackesy's The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse (Ebury) galloped five places up the Most-Sold: Fiction chart to claim the top spot, the same week it rose back into the UK Official Top 50 number one through Nielsen BookScan's TCM. Candice Carty-Williams' Queenie (Trapeze) leapt into second place, earning the "unputdownable" tag—Kindle readers finished Queenie faster than similar titles. Bernardine Evaristo's Girl, Woman, Other (Penguin) jumped eight places to third.
