Pantheon Books' nearest audiences are a tight pack of fellow book publishers, literary magazines, and media websites — with no single neighbor pulling far ahead of the rest.
The shape is flat: the top 10 scores span only 0.95 to 0.93, a narrow band with no dominant outlier. Six of the ten neighbors are Book Publishers — Scribner (0.95), Farrar, Straus & Giroux (0.95), Penguin Press (0.95), Vintage/Anchor Books (0.95), Alfred A. Knopf (0.95), and Riverhead Books (0.94) — confirming that Pantheon's audience looks, first and foremost, like the audience of other literary imprints. The remaining four neighbors shift the picture: Salon (0.94) and LA Review of Books (0.93) are Magazines; Guardian Books (0.94) is a News Publisher; and Apartment Therapy (0.93) is a Website — the one neighbor in the top 10 with no obvious literary or news identity. That last entry is the structural surprise: an interior design and home-living site sitting at the same audience distance as the London Review of Books' editorial peers.
The overall picture is a same-kind cluster with a consistent media-literate fringe — an audience that reads across publishers and literary outlets in roughly equal measure, with no single imprint or channel commanding outsized overlap.
