Comparison of Bestseller Lists for March 2010

Here is a comparison of the CBA "May" list and the ECPA "April" list, both reflecting sales in the month of March. Books appearing only on one list are highlighted in blue. It's interesting that for this month's lists they differ by only two books. Usually it's around five or six. For a reminder of how these lists are put together by ECPA and CBA, please refer to the first few paragraphs of this F&F post.
