This Is Going To Hurt still selling strongly

The NHS memoirs of medic-turned-comedian Adam Kay remain top of the Sunday Times bestseller charts for the third week running.

This Is Going To Hurt sold 16,745 copies last week, more than three times as many as the second best-selling non-fiction paperback. It means the edition has now sold almost 42,000 copies in total.

Previously, the hardback edition was in the top ten for three months and scooped a handful of book awards.

It has since been translated into 15 languages and is being developed into a possible TV series.

Kay also has a deal for a follow-up book: 100 Patients Who Changed My Life, which is due to be published by Picador in the autumn of 2019.

Robert Webb's memoirs How Not To Be A Boy have also entered the paperback bestseller charts at No 7, having sold 2,695 copies in the first week.
