The Sunday Times has released the monthly bestseller list for August, revealing South Africa’s top selling fiction and non-fiction books.
The three top selling fiction books remain unchanged, with Country, the new novel from fan favourite Danielle Steel, coming in at number four and the new movie-tie-in edition of John Green’s 2008 novel Paper Towns making an appearance at number five.
South African titles stand firm at the top of the non-fiction list, in the form of RW Johnson’s How Long Will South Africa Survive?: The Looming Crisis and Ashlee Vance’s Elon Musk: How the Billionaire CEO of Spacex and Tesla is Shaping Our Future.
Anemari Jansen’s Eugene de Kock: Assassin for the State has been knocked out of the top five, with the controversial Agent 407: A South African Spy Breaks Her Silence by Olivia Forsyth jumping in at number three.
