Hot This Week: May 15

The comedy Why Him? spends another week atop the movie list, where it's joined by two new films. Likewise, Kendrick Lamar remains at #1 in music, which sees such heavy-hitting newcomers as Mary J. Blige, Willie Nelson, and John Mellencamp. In fiction, the latest collaborative novel from James Patterson debuts in the top spot, followed by a new thriller from the author of the breakout hit The Girl on the Train. In non-fiction, the only newcomer is the hottest of them all, a guide to astrophysics from Neil deGrasse Tyson.
