Indie Top 20 - for the week ending 24 September 2011

29 Sep 2011

As part of the Indiebound programme, Nielsen Bookscan has generously agreed to supply a weekly independent Top 20 bestellers report. This report acknowledges that our independent bookstores have their own distinct market and will enable all booksellers to compare and contrast both the mainstream and the independent bestseller lists.

The permanent home of the Independent Top 20 will be on the Indiebound website - we're running it here today while we work through some technical issues.

The list is also attached as a PDF that you're welcome to print out.
