People (and by “people” I mean me!) are already sick of watching her on TV, and it now seems no one wants to waste their valuable time reading what Kate Gosselin has to say either.

The reality Octomom’s latest book, I Just Want You to Know: Letters to My Kids on Love, Faith, and Family, is being branded a certified bomb after selling just over 10,000 copies since its release on April 13.

While that number would be nothing to wag a finger at if Kate were new to the literary world, Gosselin’s as seasoned at writing as she is packing lunches. Her first two books (Eight Little Faces & Multiple Blessings) were both New York Times Bestsellers.

So what’s the problem with her latest tome? Too much Kate, not enough eight.

Perhaps iVillage summarized it best: “Solo Kate is a lot easier to pass over than those eight little smiles….”

Jim Milliot, business and news director of Publisher’s Weekly, told US Weekly Thursday that Kate will have “a very tough time getting to 50,000, let alone 100,000… I think it will be a disappointment in the end.”

In a positive turn of events. Reports that her book isn’t selling well seem to have improved Kate’s Amazon.com rank, which jumped up several hundred places overnight. On Thursday afternoon, Kate’s Amazon.com ranking was No. 862, by Friday morning, it had jumped up to No. 486.
