Blue Like Jazz makes the New York Times Bestsellers List Three Years After its Release
October, 12th
“Donald Miller’s Blue Like Jazz has slowly climbed many independent and regional bestsellers list but until this month, three years after its release, has not made the coveted NYT bestsellers list. Analyzers claim the reason for this is that 30% of the books sales come from Christian bookstores, whose sales are not considered in creating the list.”
update: It will appear at #29 on the paperback/nonfiction list in a couple weeks.

Thank God for Christian Bookstores. Of course Christian Bookstores are not included in the analysis. My oldest daughter when she was little accompanied me to a a Christian Bookstore and while I was browsing she stated “can’t you guys do anything for yourself”? That is why I started with thank God for Christian Bookstores. I find that to be the view of what are they called the “seculars”? They buy thier ink in drums. What else is new? I think he deserves the nobel peace prize for calming ME down.

Well deserved Don! Your prose is simple, yet compelling and strangely effective.

Praise God, more people need to dive into your thought world Don. Hopefully this will continue the shift on spiritual thought in this country.

Don, I just attended my 60th high school class reunion. Now, our class was the smallest ever to graduate from Venice (California) High, because the war was just over, and many of our boys had been “accelerated” so they could graduate before going into the service.
I took “Blue Like Jazz” as my gift to each of my old friends.
Thank you for saying things I should have said 60 years ago.

A million thank yous!!!! I sensed in reading Blue Like Jazz that I was at home. Feeling greatly misunderstood most of life I finally feel like there’s someone else who gets ME!!!!! Thank you for your honesty and integrity in relaying a life well traveled, and a spirituality well embraced. My spirit was alive and free.
