The NYT list is a true mystery. No one really knows including James Patterson. Here’s his rant on it. (Took me 30 mins to read this bc it’s all centered 😂).

Ironically, the first thing I will post is an article this morning in the @washingtonpost.com about folks unplugging from social media, featuring a pic of a kid reading my book! And here I am signing up for more social media apps 😂😂😂

Hi everyone! Is this where the cool kids are hanging out? 🤣 Flattered to be here. I am extremely uncool but I write a lot of books for kids. ❤️
