Beedle makes another mark: #1 on bestseller list

On top of this morning's news of The Tales of Beedle the Bard becoming the fastest selling book of 2008, USA Today now reports that it's holding the #1 spot on their bestseller list: Stephenie Meyer, the American author who is often called the new J.K. Rowling, has been bumped from the top of USA TODAY's Best-Selling Books list — by J.K. Rowling. The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Rowling's collection of five fairy tales, will enter the list Thursday at No. 1. Even though Rowling has loosened Meyer's iron grip on the top spot, Meyer's teen vampire novels remain sizzling hot, thanks to the hit movie adaptation of Twilight, the first book in the series.
