Donna Tartt's THE GOLDFINCH held on to No. 1 on the New York Times' fiction list for the week ending February 23, 2014. THE INVENTION OF WINGS by Sue Monk Kidd stayed strong in the second slot, while LETTING GO by Maya Banks took No. 3 this week.

Marcus Luttrell and Patrick Robinson's LONE SURVIVOR reappeared at the top of the non-fiction list this week, with THE MONUMENTS MEN at No. 2, and TWELVE YEARS A SLAVE by Solomon Northrup coming in third.

On the Amazon side, John Green's THE FAULT IN OUR STARS, soon coming to the big screen, came out on top yet again, with the Little Golden Book of Disney's FROZEN coming in second, and Veronica Roth's DIVERGENT rounding out the top three, with the complete series boxed set in fourth.
