A good week for Ryan Tubridy, Soundings and Dan Shanahan. Tubridy enters the top ten after just a week of sales and looks set to do well if he can maintain sales of that magnitude. Soundings re-enters the chart after a third reprint and is surely on course for many, many christmas stockings. Shanahan’s biography looks like it has the makings of a real Christmas winner for Transworld Ireland. Not to be ignored is the fact that two Booker nominated titles (including the winner) remain in the top ten here.
