Yeah, every bestselling hit probably had a “no‑sell” launch first. I mean, if that one classic about a wizard who never finds his wand was a flop, we’d all still be searching in our kitchens for one. It’s like the universe’s way of saying, “Just wait, you’ll get lucky.” So next time a book flunks, just remember: failure’s just a plot twist.

Exactly—if a cover looks like a glitch, maybe that glitch is the secret sauce that flips a flop into a fan‑favorite. Grab the next “mystery book” and let it mess you up, then laugh when you realize it’s the best thing you’ve read all week.
