Tough Crowd, due out 12 October. I’m delighted to see this. He is such a good writer and has sacrificed so much in defence of women’s rights and reality itself. Hope it’s a smash hit.

Is this going to be one of those roaring successes where the publishers give their staff a Christmas bonus? Hope so!

Getting a couple!

OMG
Its coming out in Audiobook too, with Glinner doing the reading. That should be incredible! Hearing his emotions is going to be magical. I want this more than the book.

It's hit bestseller status on Amazon.

Excellent news!

IcakethereforeIam · 14/09/2023 19:54

That's over 100 orders since 7 pm. Even if they're not all for Glinner's book, I bet most of them are, that's amazing.

I'm rarely on twitter these days but think I'll have a quick login. After so many years of them shitting all over Graham and taking pleasure in the damage they've done to him, I'm going to take quite a bit of pleasure in watching them throw pointless tantrums at his success.

I’ve asked someone to buy it me for my birthday.

viques · 14/09/2023 19:48

7863 reporting in. They are going to have a busy few days when it comes to packing and posting!

I very rarely buy new books, but to support Glinner it’s a small price to pay back a bit of what he has done for us. I might donate it to my local secondary school when I have read it.

lechiffre55 · 14/09/2023 19:46

Right now, and it will vary, if each order number +1 represents a single copy being sold Glinner's selling more than one a minute. And that's only off the publisher's website NOT including any Amazon sales. Amazon sales will be much larger than publisher direct, e.g. postage abroad purchases.
So right now that's probably at least two copies per minute.

TheGreatATuin · 14/09/2023 19:46

Does anyone know when the kindle version will be out? I don't usually buy physical books any more, bit will be feeling very left out if you lot all get to read it before me. 🤣

Bonkersworknonsense · 14/09/2023 19:44

Ah, I wondered about postage to Canada. It’ll have to be Amazon then.

Im so pleased for Glinner and that Richard Ayoade had a nice quote for him, and especially impressed with Ross as it can’t be easy times in his family with him being brave about this.

I ordered just before 7 pm. If anyone is familiar with publishing, is this volume of orders usual?

It's incredibly good. It's 1st in all his categories and 7th out of books on Amazon UK.
That's selling unusually for a hardcover book that's on pre-order and not even out yet.

Bestseller

Brefugee · 14/09/2023 19:29

postage in the UK only is free. Outside it's expensive (45 quid to Canada in the twitter thread) so I've emailed to say sorry but it's being ordered from amazon and i hope that helps them.

No, it’s not. It’s selling unusually well.

Yes, it sounds as if that is correct. It seems that many people are ordering more than one copy too.
