Discover the Insights in Kamala Harris’s Upcoming Memoir

Former Vice President Kamala Harris’s latest memoir is projected to rank as 2025’s best-selling political autobiography, according to her publisher.

“107 Days,” which recounts Harris’s brief 2024 presidential campaign after then-President Biden dropped out of the race, moved 350,000 copies during its opening week, Simon & Schuster reported Tuesday. That figure reflects purchases and advance orders across formats, including print, e-book and audio editions.

The book, where Harris described Biden’s choice to initially seek reelection as “reckless,” was released nationwide on Sept. 23.

“These numbers place ‘107 Days’ on course to be the top-selling memoir issued in 2025,” the publisher said in its announcement, noting a fifth print run has already been ordered.

“As one of the most compelling accounts ever written about running for the U.S. presidency, the popularity of ‘107 Days’ underscores Kamala Harris’s enduring influence and inspiration,” said Jonathan Karp, Simon & Schuster’s president and CEO.

Karp added that only a few celebrity memoirs since 2023 — by Taylor Swift, Britney Spears and Prince Harry — surpassed Harris’s debut-week sales.
