Best of BARD: October 2017

In October, Sue Grafton leapt up one spot from her place in September.  Otherwise, all of October’s top downloads are new titles and new authors.  Do you know what that means?  No King Patterson!  While there are no holiday books as I predicted, four of the five top downloads went to women writers.  If you are a Best Of reader, you know how unusual that is.  October also brought a non-fiction title into the mix: What Happened by Hillary Rodham Clinton.  I’m starting to realize that, when it comes to the Best of BARD, expect the unexpected.
