AmazonScan tracks how a book, movie, or other item is ranked in Amazon’s sales lists. The lowest of the low being tracked at the moment is the page-turner The Brachiopod Antiquatonia Coloradoensis (Girty) from the Upper Morrowan and Atokan (Lower Middle Pennsylvanian) of the United States, a Thomas W. Henry classic from his difficult “blue” period.
When so few people purchase a book, it must be awfully difficult for Amazon to do all the wonderful number crunching it does, like figuring out what people who bought that book also bought. As a result, the #1 entry under “customers who shopped for this item also shopped for these items” is The Little Book Of Crap Excuses, which, while similar in theme, likely doesn’t share many readers with Henry’s brachiopod epic.
