Paula Hawkins’s “The Girl on the Train” is settling into its fourth week at the top of the E-book Best-Seller List, seemingly immune from the game of musical chairs other best-selling titles appear to be playing.
Many of those, including “Wild,” “Gone Girl,” “American Sniper,” “Unbroken” and the “Fifty Shades of Grey” trilogy — all three titles of which hit the top 25 for the first time since reappearing three weeks before the film release — are movie tie-ins, likely buoyed this past week by the run-up to Sunday night’s Oscars.
