USA Today Besteller List, Week Ending January 6, 2008
I know that this is way late, but it is the first USA list of the year so I figure that it is better late than never. I’ve decided to go with a table format. I think it’s easier to peruse this way. The list is much stronger this month for romances with a crossover romance author making it to the list for the first time: Yasmine Galenorn’s Darkling.

I like the table format! Thanks so much!
But why is their peak lower than their current ranks, for a lot of them?
whoops – I think I put in last week’s ranking and not the peak. Need to go and edit.
