(CNN) - Sarah Palin's 432 page memoir isn't set to be released for more than seven weeks, but the highly anticipated tell-all has already shot to No. 1 on Barnes and Nobles' Web site, supplanting new releases from bestselling authors Dan Brown and Mitch Albom.
The forthcoming book has also vaulted up Amazon.com's bestseller list, currently holding the No. 3 spot just behind Glenn Beck's "Arguing with Idiots: How to Stop Small Minds and Big Government."
The book - titled "Going Rogue: An American Life" in reference to the anonymous criticism directed at the former Alaska governor by aides to Republican presidential nominee John McCain - is scheduled to be released on November 17.
Palin's publisher, Harper, has ordered a massive first printing of 1.5 million copies, and is not releasing an electronic version until the day after Christmas in an effort to drive up sales of the more expensive hardcover edition, the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.

Go Sarah Go!
Wooo-hoooo! Go Sarah!
I can't believe there are so many people wasting their hard-earned money on Palin's book. Unless they're going to use it to line the bird cage or cat box........
Number 1? Who know so many from the other side could read?! It will become an instant classic, I tell ya. Right up there with "My Pet Goat" Who buys these books anyway PACs?
All freak accidents attract gawkers.
Contrary to the opinions on this board, Palins popularity lives on and the Left fears her. I would take her over Obama any day, atleast she understands economics.
Sounds like the most successful coloring book ever.
Who is actually going to buy this tome? Will it be in big letters (that's why the 400 pages) and double-spaced? And we thought "The DaVinci Code" was a hyped-up rip-off!
Another book of lies......
The truth coudn't be put any plainer.
and the media are giving it free publicity (worth millions)
People are excited to see a young, competent, and accomplished woman like Sarah Palin take center stage. Sarah is a true conservative.
How pathetic. It is a shame that so many Americans will spend money on this vapid garbage.
I'm not in the least driven to know any more than I already do about this woman. I think that she portrayed herself in the past election and left nothing uncovered. She is a woman who seeks attention at any cost. The last thing that I would do is promote her.
Not surprising. Lest we forget, Americans are the people who think Britney Spears is a good musician, Fox news practices journalism, Adam Sandler is funny and Olive Garden is real Italian food. No taste or class. Have a nice day!
Soon to be found in dollar stores!
Palin will get "rich" from Americans money! But she is against
95% of what Americans need and want. Palin is strickly for the
"Very RICH people in America!
America supports the very people that are "against" them.
I would pick it up in the BARGIN section if I were to get close. I doubt that there is really much she has to say that I am willing to believe that she dreamed up herself. Will she create an industry of proofing her book after it comes out like Ann "I'm really a self hating liberal" Coulter has?
I am waiting for the publisher to push the release date early and not have the books ready. They did that in 2004 with the anti-Kerry book which would have killed his career if it was done during the 1980's or if the cold war was still going on.
don,t worry once she milk,s as much money as she can,s out of america she,ll be gone palin wrote a book RIGHT
Must have lots of pretty pictures. Cannot have much in terms of content, analytical thought, reasoning, or any of that other silly stuff.
The old adage applies – "A fool is born every minute"
I guess there are a lot of fools out there.
I wouldn't waste my money buying her book.............just like flushing money down the toilet.
I'm not buying it, but I didn't buy her stuff the first time around either. A relief that she's given up politics and burned her bridges with the GOP now; perhaps she can run for dogcatcher as an independent?
I can hear Sarah Palin laughing all the way to the bank. Our news media has made her rich by their constant slander ridicule.
My goodness, those pages will be filled with flashing fingers, squits and contortions of the jaw. For sure it will lack depth but will have flowery language .Awaiting the joker
Shouldn't take long to read,432 pages and 387 of them are pictures of herself.
