This isn't an online list. As a matter of fact, I think it's an industry list that only editors and agents receive. But it helps them see how a new title is faring in the market.
I'd seen my friend, Lorraine Bartlett's (Lorna Barrett) Facebook post about SENTENCED TO DEATH hitting that list at #1. No surprise there, because Lorna's Booktown mysteries are wonderful and always do extremely well on bestseller lists.
But, I have to admit, I had my fingers crossed when I emailed my editor to find out how Grace was doing. My editor's email this morning came as wonderful news! I'm just thrilled.
Thank you to everyone who helped me! The first week - release week - is so important for new books. That first week can make or break a series and I'm grateful to all my readers for helping me make this coveted #4 spot!!
Woo-hoo!
PS - Pictures from my book launch party are up on FB!

Congrats, Julie!! Love the White House series and I confess I haven't gotten your new series yet (despite you're well into it) but my Mom loves it!! We missed you at Auggie's last weekend by one day!
Thanks, Jennifer!! Wish you could have come out to Augie's - it was a blast - but I'm sure we'll connect out there again one of these days! And thank your mom, too!
