ALT0a ... that How to Be an Antiracist topped The New York Times Best Seller List in the Hardcover Nonfiction category after a surge in sales following the killing of George Floyd?
@Bilorv: New enough, long enough, no obvious close paraphrasing, QPQ done. I suggest shuffling the wording of the hook as in ALT0a which I think flows better and has the subject at the start of the hook, but this isn't essential. Could you add citations directly following the sentences where the hook facts are mentioned, as per DYK rules? I also suggest updating the sentence "It has spent a total of 14 weeks on the list" which is now out of date by a few weeks. 97198 (talk) 14:01, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. I also prefer ALT0a. I've updated the bestsellers list and added more inline citations. — Bilorv (talk) 14:25, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, looks good. I've struck the original hook. 97198 (talk) 14:33, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
