Notes:
     October at the complete review was significantly impacted if not totally dominated by Annie Ernaux's Nobel win, with her author page having the best showing for any author page in years, and her books well-represented among the most-viewed reviews. Traffic is always good in Nobel-month, and it was up some sixty per cent over last year.
     For all the Ernaux-siccess it was another surprise -- the Lemaitre -- that vaulted to the top of the bestseller list, for reasons that are not entirely clear.

For recent bestseller lists, go to previous lists.
For annual and older lists, see also the 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, , 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 , 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 lists.
