Sunbury Press enjoyed the best May ever. Sales were up 17% over last year. This month we have expanded the bestseller list to 20 to account for the higher number of titles we are managing, and the upward trend in unit sales. Last month's rankings included only 10 books, 5 of which did not make the top 20 this month.

Terry Ray's novels, Revolt! & GXM731 were helped by author events. Keith Rommel's The Cursed Man & The Lurking Man charted thanks to strong sales at Rocky's Hardware and interest in The Cursed Man movie. Robin Donaruma's The Undecided grabbed #4 thanks to bookstore orders. Joe Farley's Song Poems in Search of Music was #5 thanks to author activity, as were Sheldon Munn's Freemasons at Gettysburg & Mack Allen Smith's Rockabilly Rebel. The Bear, by Wendy Latty, benefitted from being the featured book in the Sunbury Store on First Friday in May. Alan Mindell's The Closer slipped a bit due to a number of returns from bookstores. Tim Dempsey's Well I'll Be Hanged debuted on the chart thanks to strong sales in Nebraska. The Joes, Farrell & Farley, took three spots with three of their Keystone Tombstones volumes -- I, III, and Civil War. Mike Campbell's Amelia Earhart: The Truth at Last hung on thanks to sales in Arizona. Robert Walton's Fatal Snow returned to the rankings thanks to sales at Bob's Bagels. Renee des Lauriers' The Oxygen Factory debuted debuted at #14 thanks to ecommerce sales in both print and ebook. Dennis Herrick's Winter of the Metal People & Robert Miller's The Cogan Legend, grabbed spots thanks to author appearances.
