Does it look like a weird list? We think so, too. A list that reflects the diverse and eclectic tastes of the January Magazine readership.

This bestseller list reflects the top sellers on January Magazine throughout 2007. Notice, please, that very few of these books showed up on any of the top selling lists throughout the year. In fact, many of these books were published -- and reviewed -- prior to last year. It's a gorgeous collection, though. Indicating what we've always known: January's readers don't follow the pack. They lead it. Next question: where will they lead us in 2008?
