Amazon Charts: Walliams and Hinch winch up the rankings

David Walliams and Tony Ross' The World's Worst Parents (HarperCollins) zipped upwards 11 places to the Amazon Charts' Most-Sold: Fiction top spot, as Mrs Hinch's memoir This is Me (Michael Joseph), due to be released in October, swept straight to the top of Most-Sold: Non-Fiction. Walliams' latest World's Worst series title topped the Nielsen BookScan charts for the same week in hardback, shifting 74,334 copies in three days on sale.

The World's Worst Parents was the single children's title in the Most-Sold: Fiction top 20. Lockdown stalwarts Beth O'Leary's The Flatshare (Quercus) and Bernardine Evaristo's Girl, Woman, Other (Penguin) were barely affected by restrictions easing, with The Flatshare rising 14 places, as its e-book edition dropped to 99p, and the Booker winner spiking six places. Girl, Woman, Other also leapt to 12th place in Most-Read: Fiction.

The announcement of Mrs Hinch's latest title not only sent it straight to the top of Most-Sold: Non-Fiction on pre-orders alone, as it earned the "most anticipated" tag, but also saw her 2019 title The Little Book of Lists clean up, rising eight places.

Reni Eddo-Lodge's Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race (Bloomsbury) held the Most-Read: Non-Fiction top spot for a fifth week running, with Michelle Obama's Becoming (Penguin) in second and Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens (Vintage) re-claiming third.
