-ETA-
There was some trouble with the links at first, but it's fixed now.




Here is the first tweet in which Chris mentions it:

[Glorfindel]

First Book reached the goal of selling 200 of TLoS t-shirts for charity. But they are still for sale, so if you're quick you can still get one.

[valkeakuulas]

Just got myself one. Four days left I think. And the price is very reasonable.

I bought one two 34 dollars including postage works out about £22.00

[Divalicious]

I got mine, I think there was a ticker at the bottom of the screen indicating 3 days and change left for those who haven't had the time to order yet.

I just ordered one.

I hope they hit the 800 mark. I've already bought what I could, but there is over a day left. After deducting the cost of the shirts, that should still be over $10,000 to First Book .

@chriscolfer: Someone pinch me… #TheLandofStories is now a #1 New York Times Best Selling SERIES! I can’t thank you all enough!

   

[Glorfindel]

Chris' and Alla's reactions to the news:

hrhchriscolfer My reaction to the news… Didn’t even see @aplotkin716 had her phone out! Feeling so blessed today.#TLOS

This is such wonderful news for Chris, and his TLoS team.

[angelnessa]

It really is, and so well deserved. I'm glad the news came while he was still on tour. That should make the last few stops even more fun and exciting .

[Jellyrolls]

So proud of him! I really love the fact that each book seems to be doing better and better--it shows that though the Glee fandom is the core of his fanbase, he really has grown beyond that.

[ColferInspired]

I am just so proud of him.

He really deserves this.

I saw the alert of Chris tweeting on my phone and wondered what it was. This is the best news ever.

[brisallie]

I'm glad Alla took those pictures :D something I love about Chris is how he still gets surprised by his success, please TLOS has been NEW YORK TIMES Number One since its started :D

[mindschemez]

Back in the number 1 spot!!! I had a gut feeling, or at least the highest hopes, that it would be. The momentum and demand continues to build year after year, it's amazing!

And why did I get emotional seeing it come in at number 1, then seeing Chris' reaction? So proud! We picked a great one to stan!

[Glorfindel]

@chriscolfer Pinch me again! #TheLandOfStories is STILL the #1 Best Selling series in its second week! So EXCITED! So GRATEFUL! Can’t thank everyone enough - so happy the books are finding good homes!

 

[mindschemez]

Amazing! Staying power!

[Kurt addict]

Just arrived! Know what the rest of the day has in store for me
