A play runs for two weeks, but books stay up there on the shelf.

The book stayed in its drawer for the next three nights.

So these books may not stay on the top layer of the coffee table forever.

The book has stayed with me all my life.

The book went straight to number one on the bestseller lists, and stayed there.

The book has stayed constantly in print since its publication.

Ordinarily, that book stayed in the drawer from one month to the next.

But books read aloud also stayed long in my memory.

New releases are up front, but the books only stay there for a week or so.

The book, like the film, has been equally popular around the world and stays in print.
