Robin Meade‘s new book, Morning Sunshine!: How to Radiate Confidence and Feel it Too, debuts at #12 on the “Advice, How-To, and Miscellaneous” section of the New York Times Best Seller list.

“I have dreamed about this from the moment I started writing this book,” Meade tells TVNewser, “but I am still beyond surprised. My modesty went out the window for a couple of minutes when I found out the book had hit the New York Times list, as I called friends screaming it into their ears! The viewers, readers, and network support made it happen, and I’m incredibly grateful.”

Meade follows in the footsteps of HLN colleague Nancy Grace, whose The Eleventh Victim made The New York Times Best Seller list in August. HLN host Jane Velez-Mitchell‘s book iWant: My Journey from Addiction and Overconsumption to a Simpler, Honest Life is set for release on October 5.
