About

Issue 21 of "This Week in Publishing" (August 24-31, 2026) highlights a late-summer transition anchored by established commercial authors. New releases from Liane Moriarty, Linwood Barclay, and T. Kingfisher lead the fiction market, while Daniel Silva’s "Ransom" and Matt Dinniman's series dominate the bestseller charts. Nonfiction remains driven by political current events and memoirs.
