Twilight Series Books Top the Best-Selling Books List

USA Today has a top Best-Selling Books List for each year. They have been doing this for sixteen years now. The 2009 list was just released this week and for the first time ever an author has swept the top four spots. For 2009 USA Today says the best-selling books were the Twilight series books by Stephenie Meyer!

The Top selling books went in this order:

1. New Moon

2. Eclipse

3. Twilight

4. Breaking Dawn

Not only did Stephenie Meyer do well with the Twilight Series books on this list but her adult fiction book The Host came in 19th! This is quite an accomplishment and shows how great the books really are! We sure are lucky that Stephenie had the dream she did one night of a vampire and a girl in a meadow.

USA Today also reported that the Twilight Series accounted for 29% of sales tracked in 2009. This is the highest in the list history. Now think about it a little bit here! The Twilight Series beat out a great favorite among many young adults and adults alike, the Harry Potter Series by JK Rowlings! It has officially become bigger than Harry Potter. Well at least the books have. (We aren’t comparing the movies right now.)

I am so glad that others are seeing how great the series is and yes it is not just for tweens and teens! I am one of those in my 30s that loves the Twilight Series Books. This list shows that there are a lot of people like me and you who are interested in what happens to Bella Swan and all those she loves!

Yeah for Stephenie Meyer!

Congratulations for this great accomplishment!

To You,
