J.K. Rowling's surprise turn at mystery, THE CUCKOO'S CALLING, is back on top of The New York Times' best seller fiction list for the week ending Sept. 1. The novel previously enjoyed a lengthy stay at the top of Amazon's online marketplace, selling out once the news broke that Rowling was the true author. CALLING also previously topped The Times' list in July.

Conservative talk show host Mark R. Levin's latest book, THE LIBERTY AMENDMENTS: RESTORING THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC took the no. 1 spot on The Times' non-fiction list, with Reza Aslan's ZEALOT taking the second spot.

On the Amazon side of things, a continued surge in text book sales signals that back-to-school season is in full swing.
