By: Sally Henry Fuller Aug. 24, 2014

Since there's no end-all-be-all 'best seller' list, BWW Books has rounded up both The New York Times' top sellers as well as Amazon's - providing you with your one-stop look at this week's top reads!

For the New York Times in the week ending August 24, Diana Gabaldon's OUTLANDER takes the No. 1 spot in fiction, followed by LIan Moriarty's BIG LITTLE LIES in No. 2, and GONE GIRL, by Gillian Flynn, in third place.

In non-fiction, Lara Hillenbrand's UNBROKEN continues to lead for the sixth week in a row, followed by THE BOYS IN THE BOAT by Daniel James Brown, and Dinesh D'Souza's AMERICA takes No. 3.

On Amazon, Gayle Forman's IF I STAY is in No. 1 again, with the PUBLICATION MANUAL OF THE AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION at No. 2, and PLAYER'S HANDBOOK (DUNGEONS & DRAGONS), by Wizards RPG Team at No. 3.
