1. NYT's 'best sellers' list is a joke. nt

2. It sucks so bad when some people don't read what you think they should read.

Setting aside methodology of the NYT list, of course.

3. The dog essays

Would be good. #13.

That’s the only one I’d read.

4. Best seller lists only speak to sales, not quality

Many people buy and/or read schlocky stuff. I use best seller lists to know what not to read for the most part.
