Despite Media Blitz, Snooki's 'Shore Thing' Fails to Sell

The “Jersey Shore" star's effort moves only 8,998 copies since Jan. 4 release.

When Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi’s book A Shore Thing, was released just after the New Year, the reality star-turned-author went on a promotional tear, hitting a slew of major talk shows including The View, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Late Show with David Letterman. The latter, perhaps looking to prove that Snooki can not only write, but read, even allowed her to recite the nightly top 10 list.
