Well, it had to happen sometime.
According to the latest edition of Entertainment Weekly magazine, Stephenie Meyer’s Breaking Dawn (a personal favorite of mine) has finally been dethroned from the #1 hardcover fiction bestseller spot by David Wroblewski’s The Story of Edgar Sawtelle.
Of course, since Wrokblewski’s book was recently “endorsed” by Oprah, it’s not all that surprising. And therein, my friends, lies the power of the O brand.
While I’m usually loathe to read books just because Oprah Winfrey says so, I’ve been hearing good things about Edgar Sawtelle. What do you guys think? Is it worth my time? How would you rate Oprah’s taste in books?
