Kate Gosselin's 'Letters' are not getting read
Kate Gosselin might still be hot in the tabloids, but it's looking like folks might not want to read a whole book about her these days.Gosselin's book, I Just Want You to Know: Letters to My Kids on Love, Faith, and Family, has sold only 10,084 copies since its April 13 release (according to national book sales tracker Bookscan).
While the non-fiction title debuted at No. 11 on the New York Times' non-fiction bestseller list, by Thursday (April 29) afternoon, its Amazon.com sales rank was No. 1,030 -- and its list price has dropped from $22.99 to $12.41.
By comparison, Gosselin's first two books, Multiple Blessings and Eight Little Faces, hit number five on the New York Times' list. Multiple Blessings sold 523,000 copies in 2009.
Is this the first sign that the tabloid-topping mom is finally starting to slip into obscurity?
Maybe she should write a book about that.

nobody cares.
Love: You treated your husband like ****
Faith: Both of you are not very "Christian" are ya
Family: You & Jon effed that up
So who wants a book on lies?
Let's hope this poor excuse of a parent slips into total obscurity. Just trying to make yet another buck off the backs of her 8 little ones!! Neither Jon nor Kate would win the parent of the year aware. But seriously, selling out her kids privacy and tender years for the masses all because they were too lazy to work for a living like the rest of us. There are many large families who certainly survive on "working" for a living, not having the kids making the living.
Go the hell away Kate, no one wants to see or hear you! Your sick or just freaking mean as hell. Either way, you are a monster for making the children work to support theirselves and your fame chasing wanna be bs. Kate, you look old too, stop the maddness and just work a job and be a mom to the children. No one wants to see you, read about you or hear your horrible voice while crying for money and fame! Hope Jon puts a stop to the kids on tv, he should!
If she really wanted to bake cookies with her kids, she'd do it. Sell the expensive house and get one she can afford. There are much cheaper homes with enough bedrooms out there. Give up the expensive Landcruiser. Live a more modern life and she wouldn't have to work so much...then she can stay home with her kids more. They are only little once. When they get older and don't want your around as much (or need you as much), then pursue Hollywood.
modest..not modern. Sorry.
go away
yes, maybe ppl finally are tired of her crying and whining for $ and fame. hope her 30 minutes (15, and then unfortunately another 15) is finally ending....
Letters to your children should remain private and not published and sold for money.
