We are continuing our series on the latest popular literature a Eastlit. Previous posts on the latest popular literature were: top reads, popular writing and top ten. They seemed popular enough and a bit of fun. So here is another one on the latest popular literature at Eastlit for early mid-December!

I have included the all time top ten and as usual I have also included the top five most popular writing pieces of the last five and thirty days. Pieces still seem to move up and down and in and out of the all time top ten.

We continue to look at the latest popular literature by contributors. Pages such as: site pages, editorials, covers and news items etc are not included. I still don’ include a direct link to each piece, but I continue to list which issue each piece is in. It is easy to find links to older issues through the Eastlit Archive. Recent issues are in the archive menu and also at the top of the page. It is also a good idea to take a look at some of the lesser read pieces too. Being in the top ten may not mean being the best 😉

Anyway here is the top ten of all time after the recent top fives:
