book sales

Author's income source

Book sales refers to the commercial activity of selling books, or the revenue generated from such transactions: Book sales declined after the holiday season.

The term also denotes events where books are sold, often at discounted prices—library book sales, used book sales, charity book sales: I found a first edition at the church book sale.
