Where Hillary Earned (her own) Money
Hillary Clinton's book sets a record. In the last decade, only the fourth ''Harry Potter'' has sold more books its first week on shelves



Instead of Hogwarts and evil wizards, she writes of Yale Law School and vast right-wing conspiracies, but otherwise, Hillary Rodham Clinton has a lot in common with J.K. Rowling. According to USA Today, the former first lady's new memoir, ''Living History,'' is the fastest-selling nonfiction book since the newspaper started tracking best-sellers a decade ago, with publisher Simon & Schuster estimating sales of 600,000 copies since it was published last Monday. Only Rowling's ''Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'' has sold faster during its first week in stores (3 million copies), though Rowling's ''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,'' out this Saturday, may well surpass both books.

''We certainly knew that this would be the biggest adult book of the year, and it could be one of the biggest of all time,'' S&S exec David Rosenthal tells USA Today. The Wall Street Journal estimates that the publisher has already earned back the $8 million it contracted to pay the New York senator.
