Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Screenplay Sales

Does J.K. Rowling's second print publishing of the year strike the same success the Cursed Child did?

According to USA Today's bestseller list, the original screenplay falls significantly short of the bar the Cursed Child special rehearsal edition script set earlier in July this year. It comes at third, being beaten only by Janet Evanovich's "Turbo Twenty-Three" and David Baldacci's "No Man's Land." However these results could be a bit blunted since Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them's two successors had six days worth of sales to present while Fantastic Beasts only had three days of sales to contend with. But either way this shows that the sales of the screenplay is significantly less than the Cursed Child's success, where it reigned to number one on just one day's worth of sales.
