No surprise here!

Bloomsbury, the UK publisher of the Harry Potter books, sold 2.7 million copies of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in the first 24 hours that the book was on sale. Coupled with Scholastic’s 8.3 million, that’s 11 million copies of HPDH sold in just one day, making it the fastest-selling book of all time (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince sold 9 million).

Bloomsbury said:

“The response of the first readers to the seventh and final Harry Potter book has been wonderful. We’re grateful to all our printers, distributors and retailers worldwide for the most astoundingly successful book launch ever, and to JK Rowling for the most triumphant close to a magnificent series.”
