30 for TTW?!? sprinter319 Aug 10, 17:27

fwiw, the book has been in Amazon's bestsellers for 140 days. It was number one for a long while. Antibody Aug 10, 17:47

My Sister's Keeper was on the New York Times Bestsellers List when it opened.... not to mention Love in the Time of Cholera secretstalker Aug 10, 21:29

How many weeks for My Sister's Keeper? Cholera was dumped into a limited release. {nm} Antibody Aug 10, 22:05

Yeah, Cholera was "Old New Line"... but the book is supposedly one of the most read Spanish-language novels... where were those readers? secretstalker Aug 11, 06:03

Those Spanish language readers were in Spanish speaking countries, not contributing to U.S. domestic opening weekend gross. {nm} Carlion Aug 11, 09:51

But that isn't the price it has to make. It only has to make $20 million to breakeven. {nm} H-Mogul Aug 10, 18:48

It would outpace "The Bridges of Madison County," "Nights in Rodanthe" and "Cold Mountain" by more than 2:1. {nm} second gary Aug 10, 19:55
