The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide Hits Number 1 on Wall Street Journal List

We already told you about the Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide hitting the USA Today bestseller list in the number four position. USA Today, is the only list that we know of that puts every single book in the same list from cookbooks to novels. The Wall Street Journal, on the other hand, subdivides its list. They have five categories: Hardcover Fiction, Hardcover Non-Fiction, Hardcover Business, Hardcover Sports and Recreation, and Spotlight on House and Home. Given their categories they have placed the Guide in the Hardcover non-fiction section, which we confess does seem a little odd. We’re assuming that any type of guide ends up there. The Official Illustrated Guide has debuted in their number one position.

Check out the entire Wall Street Journal best seller structure here.

Guide and Graphic Novel 2 Dates

We’ve been getting hit with lots of emails of people asking two things:

1. When is the Official Illustrated Guide coming out in my country?

2. When is the Twilight Graphic Novel part 2 coming out?

Here’s what we found out via Little Brown:

They don’t currently have a release date for the Graphic Novel part 2. We are guessing that the reason the image for the graphic novel 2 appears on the inside back flap of the book jacket of the Official Illustrated Guide is that publishers tend not to change up what is on book jackets to save printing costs. Though the part 2 isn’t currently out, one day it will be, and fans will be reminded of these items.

Here is what they told us about dates for editions outside the USA.

April 12
UK (note the UK has Australia, New Zealand, India, Ireland, and South Africa in its distribution)
France
Italy
Netherlands

April 13
Germany

April 18
Brazil

April 26
Denmark

May 15
Mainland China
Fall 2011
Spain

That’s all they had for now and they said they’d give us other dates when they have them. If you don’t mind an edition written in the English language, both Amazon.com and Amazon.UK do ship to other countries depending where you live.
