this blog tried to present the figure of celebrities and also household furniture of the most popular in the everyday.
Julie Andrews' memoir a top-seller
Julie Andrews' new book Home: A Memoir of My Early Years was just published April 1, but it is already the 23rd best seller on Amazon.com. In "Home," the singer, actress and children's book author recalls her own childhood, prior to her rise to fame in movies including "Mary Poppins" and "The Sound of Music."
Andrews recounts the struggles of growing up in war-torn Britain, her parents divorce and the difficulties inherent in living in a family of hard drinkers. But Andrews also recalls the happier times; her childhood spent on radio and in music halls and her decision to leave home at 18 to become a star.
Andrews isn't the only celebrity with a currently successful book. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance remains a popular seller at number 24 on Amazon. His The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream is number 32.
Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul's The Revolution: A Manifesto is the 42nd best seller, despite the fact that is won't be released until the end of the month. At number 70 is Martha Stewart's Cookies: The Very Best Treats to Bake and to Share.
Also in the top 100 is a diet book by Jillian Michaels of "The Biggest Loser." Making the Cut: The 30-Day Diet and Fitness Plan for the Strongest, Sexiest You is the 75nd best seller on Amazon.
Not in the top 100? Tori Spelling's sTori Telling, for one, which was released March 11.
