If the first page grabs me I'm reading the rest.<br /><br />On the other hand if I see a book flying out the store. If 5 or more people have brought the book in a couple of hours. They have my attention. Three books have done that in the 10 years I've worked at a book store. The Three books are<br /><br />1. Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers<br />2. The Shack by William Young<br />3. Heaven is For Real By Todd Burpo<br /><br />This makes me stop people and ask them how they've heard of the book. I wondered what made them buy it. Not just a copy for themselves but a couple for friends as well. The common denominator was WORD OF MOUTH!!
