Book sales: Camille Etienne and Laurent Berger hunt Eric Zemmour and Sonia Mabrouk

Is the wind of progress blowing on this end of spring? We note in any case that our ranking of the best sales of tests clearly leans to the left. Eric Zemmour and Sonia Mabrouk have disappeared and have been replaced by trade unionist Laurent Berger (From contempt to anger), sociologist Didier Eribon (Life, old age and death of a woman of the people) or the environmental activist Camille Etienne (For an ecological uprising). Will tomorrows sing in bookstores?

On the side of the novels, it is not the same refrain. Frédéric Beigbeder holds firm (in the Top 30) with his Confessions of a Slightly Overwhelmed Heterosexual (surely not Camille Etienne’s favorite book), and Jean-Christophe Grangé works well with Karma Red and his sly vision of May 68. Finally Michel Houellebecq appears with A few months in my life, where he talks about his last Islamophobic remarks and his beginnings as a pornographic actor. Resistance to pension reform seems far from his battles. What will Laurent Berger think?

9. The Devil’s Sons (volume II)

By Chloe Wallerand

This is the latest novelist revealed by Wattpad, where she started as a teenager by imagining a sequel to Harry Potter. She then switched to dark romance with The Devil’s Sons, which was popular online until Les Plumes du Web published it. The author describes her saga as “full of badass and hilarious characters”. Notice to amateurs.

9. Make your glucose revolution

By Jessie Inchauspé

It’s been a year since Jessie Inchauspé has featured prominently in our ranking with Make your glucose revolution, which has sold 210,000 copies. Let us add that his new book, The Glucose Godess Method, has already sold 70,000 copies. Sugar will not have the last word: sus the peaks of blood sugar!

UNITED STATES

Only the Dead

By Jack Carr

Translated in France by the small military editions Nimrod, former Navy Seals officer Jack Carr is a star in the United States. This sniper who served in Iraq and Afghanistan has become a successful writer with his series The Terminal List (adapted with Chris Pratt in the lead role). In the sixth volume, Only the Dead, the hero James Reece saves humanity again using the Tomahawk missile. Not necessarily very fine, but at the top of the sales of novels in the New York Times.
