Disappointing sales for Pippa Middleton’s new book

Disappointing sales for Pippa Middleton’s new book

Her new book is called Celebrate, but Pippa Middleton is probably less than pleased about the sales of her latest project.

The first publishing venture for Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister has already reached the equivalent of an online bargain bin – just two weeks after its release.

The book – which was billed as “a year of British festivities for family and friends” – originally sold for £25 on Amazon.co.uk, but is down to £12. In the US, the book is now available for $29.75, down from $50 as publishers desperately try to clear their stick.

Pippa received a £400,000 advance for her book, which has been lampooned for its “banal” party tips, such as cooking a turkey to feed a large gathering and creating a spooky atmosphere for a Halloween party.
