Since there's no end-all-be-all 'best seller' list, BWW Books has rounded up both The New York Times' top sellers as well as Amazon's - providing you with your one-stop look at this week's top reads!

WALKING DISASTER, Jamie McGuire's follow-up to the New York Times bestselling novel, BEAUTIFUL DISASTER, rose to the top of the NY Time's Combined Print & E-Book Fiction list this week.

The book is officially described as: "Travis Maddox learned two things from his mother before she died: Love hard. Fight harder.

In Walking Disaster, the life of Travis is full of fast women, underground gambling, and violence. But just when he thinks he is invincible, Abby Abernathy brings him to his knees.

Every story has two sides. In Beautiful Disaster, Abby had her say. Now it's time to see the story through Travis's eyes."

Sheryl Sandberg's LEAN IN: WOMEN, WORK, AND THE WILL TO LEAD once again topped nonfiction list, for the fourth week in a row, while also taking the no. 1 spot on Amazon's overall list. The top 10 for fiction, nonfiction, and more are below!
