Here’s a look at what’s new on USA TODAY’s Best-Selling Books list…

A best-selling ‘Force’: Star Wars fans aren’t getting their fix just at the box office: they’re getting it in bookstores, too. Eight Star Wars titles zoom into the Top 150 this week. Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the seventh film in the sci-fi franchise, has pulled in more than $1 billion worldwide.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Visual Dictionary by Lucasfilm’s Pablo Hidalgo (DK Publishing) is the top-selling book tied to the movie, at No. 19. The photo-filled book bills itself as the “definitive guide to the characters, droids, aliens, and creatures” of the movie. (The full best-seller list will publish on Thursday.)

Also in the top 50: Star Wars Before the Awakening by Greg Rucka (Disney Lucasfilm Press) for young readers, at No. 46. It tells the story Rey, Finn, and Poe before the events of the new movie.
