Milverton outranking Penshaw

Murder on Milverton Square has leapfrogged his little brother, the recently released Poison at Penshaw Hall, in the rankings! Check out the Best Sellers in LGBTQ+ Mystery list:

Amazon US Best Sellers in LGBTQ+ Mystery, including Murder on Milverton Square by G B Ralph at number 6, and Poison at Penshaw Hall by G B Ralph at number 7.

You can see the list for yourself below, but note that it’s updated very frequently, so titles may have shifted around since I took this screenshot just now.

How did this happen?

From the data I have access to, it still appears that Poison at Penshaw Hall is outselling Murder on Milverton Square in book unit sales and Kindle Unlimited page reads. So, I suspect the difference in ranking is made up by new readers accessing Murder on Milverton Square through Amazon’s Prime Reading scheme. The book was selected for inclusion in the Prime Reading catalogue from the start of September until the end of November, which means it still has a few weeks left to run.

Murder on Milverton Square has been selected for Amazon Prime Reading on Amazon.com. Prime members read for free: Sep, Oct, and Nov.

What next?

Well, it’s anyone’s guess! What I want to know is… will Milverton maintain his lead, or will Penshaw leap ahead again?
