It’s been quite a ride since REWORK<\/span><\/a> launched on March 9. We’re proud to say the book has reached #4 in the “Hardcover Advice, How-To, Miscellaneous” category at the NY Times bestseller list in its second week:<\/p>\n

\"4\"<\/p>\n

Maybe we’ll make an attack ad against Alicia Silverstone next (“She really is CLUELESS<\/span>!”).<\/p>\n

It also debuted at #2 on the list of Best-Selling Hardcover Business Books at the Wall Street Journal:<\/p>\n

\"wsj\"<\/p>\n

It’s also #4 at USA<\/span> Today’s Money Best Sellers list<\/a>. According to our UK publisher<\/a>, it will be #1 on the UK Sunday Times business bestseller list this weekend. International copies are out in many parts of the rest of the world<\/a> too.<\/p>\n

Reviews<\/strong>
\nBest of all, people are loving the book. The average customer review at Amazon is 4.3 out of 5 stars (after 47 customer reviews). Here’s a sampling of reviews REWORK<\/span> has received so far:<\/p>\n

Alexis Rodich, Washington Post: \u201cI want to buy a copy for everyone I know\u201d<\/p>\n

Brad Feld, MIT<\/span> Technology Review: \u201cBrilliant\u201d<\/p>\n

Jack Covert, founder of 800-CEO-READ: \u201cI cannot over-emphasize its value\u201d<\/p>\n

Kevin Partner, PC Pro: \u201cBy far the most useful and provocative business book I\u2019ve read in recent years\u201d<\/p>\n

Matt Dunn: \u201cPossibly the most important business book you\u2019ll ever read\u201d<\/p>\n

Noah Fleming: \u201cProvides you with more real-world applicable business knowledge than an MBA<\/span>\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Emails<\/strong>
\nThe emails pouring in from readers have also been really kind. Thanks to everyone who’s taken the time to write. Here’s a note from Winn Elliott:<\/p>\n

\n

I\u2019m not gonna lie\u2026 I didn\u2019t see this coming. I just got my copy of Rework today and have now read it cover to cover. Twice.<\/p>\n

Best. Book. I\u2019ve. Ever. Read.<\/p>\n

Thank you guys for inspring me to be a better leader. This is exactly what I needed to hear\u2026 Confirming both what I\u2019ve done right\u2014and wrong.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Others have had similar kind words and we really appreciate it.<\/p>\n

The attack ad<\/strong>
\nOur ad that “Swift Boated” Karl Rove<\/a> made its way around the web too. Nearly 40,000 views at YouTube and mentions at Newsweek<\/a>, Washington Post<\/a>, Chicago Tribune<\/a>, Huffington Post<\/a>, Valleywag<\/a>, and lots of other places. And, according to one media source we spoke with, Rove has seen the ad and thinks it is “hysterical.”<\/p>\n

Interviews<\/strong>
\nJason and David recently appeared on ABC<\/span> News to discuss REWORK<\/span> with host Tory Johnson.<\/p>\n

<\/object>

<\/p>\n

And here’s an interview with Leo Laporte where David looks like Robocop:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

More press is on the way too. One thing we’re still hopeful for: an interview with Charlie Rose. Anyone out there who can help make it happen? Seems like it would be a great fit.<\/p>\n

Also, if you find your local Barnes & Noble or Borders store is out of REWORK<\/span>, please let us know.<\/p>\n
