Simon & Schuster Reports Week 1 Sales for 107 DAYS by Former Vice President Kamala Harris

NEW YORK, September 30, 2025—Simon & Schuster announced today that 107 DAYS by former Vice President Kamala Harris has sold 350,000 copies across all formats through the first week on sale in the U.S. The combined sales figure includes pre-orders, sales of print books, ebooks, and e-audiobooks. The publisher has ordered a 5th printing of the book that when complete will bring the number of hardcover copies in print to 500,000. These sales put 107 DAYS on a trajectory to be the best-selling memoir published in 2025.

 

Jonathan Karp, President and Chief Executive Officer of Simon & Schuster, said, “In addition to being one of the most interesting books ever written about the experience of running for President of the United States, the success of 107 DAYS proves what a galvanizing and inspiring cultural figure Kamala Harris is. The only memoirs that have had a better first week of sales since 2023 were by Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, and Prince Harry.”

About Former Vice President Kamala Harris

Kamala D. Harris served as the forty-ninth vice president of the United States from 2021 to 2025—the first woman in American history to hold the office. She began her career in the Alameda County district attorney’s office before being elected district attorney of San Francisco, where her Back on Track program became a national model for reducing recidivism. As California’s attorney general, Harris prosecuted transnational gangs, big banks that defrauded homeowners, and for-profit colleges that targeted students and veterans. She defended the Affordable Care Act, fought for marriage equality, and pioneered the nation’s first open-data initiative in the criminal justice system. In the United States Senate, Harris fought for civil, immigrant, and voting rights, and gained national recognition for her incisive questioning in committee hearings. As vice president, she led efforts to strengthen global alliances and address child poverty, gun violence, student debt, maternal health, economic opportunity, and reproductive rights—casting more tiebreaking votes than any vice president in history, including for pandemic relief and the largest climate investment ever. Throughout her career, she has always fought for the only client she has ever had: the people.
