'Twilight' tops

| | Comments (0)

dawn.jpgThe final book of Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series managed a million-selling debut.

"Breaking Dawn," the fourth of Meyer's sensational teen vampire series, sold 1.3 million copies in the first 24 hours after its midnight, Aug. 2 release, the Associated Press reported.
It was also the top-selling book at Borders Books & Music in Springettsbury Township this past week.

The numbers for "Breaking Dawn" don't approach the unveiling of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows." The seventh and final volume of J.K. Rowling's fantasy series sold 8.3 million copies in its first 24 hours in the United States alone.
