(108,995 posts)this week alone, not including e-book copies. Book sales of hyped books usually drop after the first week -- that's expected.
The publisher knew it probably wouldn't make enough to cover the huge advance but it didn't care. It wanted the prestige of being her publisher.

NEW YORK Hillary Rodham Clinton's book "Hard Choices" is on track to be one of the year's top nonfiction books despite another slip in sales.
Nielsen BookScan says "Hard Choices" sold 26,000 copies during its third week of publication.
Clinton's memoir about her years as secretary of state was published June 10 and sold more than 80,000 copies the first week and nearly 50,000 the second week. The numbers don't include e-book sales, which comprise around 30 percent of the overall market.

Tired of Iraq,
Tired of Afghanistan,
Tired of Benghazi,
Tired of Isreal, the Palistinians, etc.
Is anyone looking forward to reading more about those???

She could make millions writing novels. Judging from her recent statements, she seems to have a knack for fiction.
