The Bestselling Books of 2007
It’s long been understood that the January Magazine annual bestseller list is unlike the lists belonging to anyone else. Very few of these books appeared on anyone else’s bestseller list throughout the year. Some of the books -- in fact, many of them -- weren’t even published last year.
So what are they doing here? These are the books that actually sold the best on January throughout the year. (Hence, you know, the name: “bestseller list.”) The result? “A list that reflects the diverse and eclectic tastes of the January Magazine readership.” It’s also a spot of interest and fun. And who can have too much of that?

One novel. Pathetic.
I'm not sure pathetic is the right word: it's not a comment on readers in general or readerships at all. Only what our readers bought through this site. (Hence, you know, the name.)
So maybe "interesting" is a better word? I mean, really: there are a few titles there that people would probably rather buy through the mail than stand in line for. And that's OK, too. Our data indicates that a reasonably small percentage of our readers actually buy the books they read about on January through the provided links. We encourage our readers to buy independent whenever possible: but the information gotten through the site can be helpful with that, as well. But brown paper baggin'? That's a different story.
