Four novels by women who write in English were on Germany's Buchereport's fiction bestseller list for July: Stephenie Meyer's The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner and Breaking Dawn, Irish novelist Cecelia Ahern's The Book of Tomorrow, and Pretty Little Things by American crime writer Jilliane Hoffman. Italy's Informazioni Editoriali list, which combines fiction and nonfiction, featured many of today's familiar names—Andrea Camilleri, Stephenie Meyer, Patricia Cornwell, José Saramago, and Stieg Larsson. In Sweden, Svensk Bokhandel's nonfiction bestseller list for July consisted of fairly Sweden-centric titles, such as Discover Sweden and Birdsongs: 150 Swedish Birds and Their Sounds, with one exception: Ozzy Osbourne's autobiography, I Am Ozzy, in the #10 spot.
