No one expected Mike Sorrentino of MTV's "Jersey Shore" to win any book awards for his tome "Here's the Situation: A Guide to Creeping on Chicks, Avoiding Grenades and Getting in Your GTL," but Sorrentino probably hoped for a little more commercial success than the book is getting.
Life & Style's Scene Queens is reporting that the book has only sold 4,000 copies. "For a high-profile author, 4,000 copies is pretty bad," Jim Milliot of Publisher's Weekly magazine told the Scene Queens. "It's definitely a disappointment to the publishing company [Gotham], which will probably lose money on the deal."
There's a chance at redemption, though: the publisher says there are still talks taking place for a second book.
