If you haven’t taken a look at Publishers Weekly’s Audio Bestseller List in a while, now hear this: Our list has gone very, very Grey.

With the release of the audio editions of E. L. James’s now famous erotic trilogy — narrated by Becca Battoe and available from Random House Audio – 50 Shades of Grey has pretty much taken over,  grabbing three spots on our list of the Top 25 Audiobooks

As of today, Fifty Shades of Grey sits in our #1 spot, Fifty Shades Darker sits in the #6 spot, and Fifty Shades Freed is in our #8 spot. And don’t forget about the Fifty Shades Trilogy Audiobook Bundle — it fell out of the Top 25 this week, but last week debuted at our #8 spot.

Mixed in with all that erotic audio goodness is Janet Evanovich’s Wicked Business (narrated by Lorelei King) at the #2 spot and Bill O’Reilly’s Killing Lincoln (narrated by the author) at the #4 spot.
