So tonight I decided to look over the best sellers list to see what was big right now.  I used to do this fairly often but haven’t in months.  I can’t help but be impressed by how well Stephanie Meyer is still doing on varies list.  Even books related to the Twilight saga are doing well.

I really find it interesting that a presale of a book that has already been out for years is a topseller. It is insane how well the books are still doing.  Honestly, I think it is cool.  Kudos to Meyer for doing so well.  Being on the best sellers list is a huge thing for an author.  Seeing anyone do that well is very cool.
