I hope your collective wisdom can help with this query. I am looking for
current websites that list and maintain top twenty(?) bestselling fiction
and/or non fiction in European and Asian countries/languages. I want to
purchase bestsellers for our LOTE collection which has dedicated users from
a wide variety of backgrounds.

I already have a subscription to Publishing Trends but would appreciate some
sources for Asian language bestsellers.
