UPE spam for non notable book. Lacks reviews, none of the awards are major. UPE and notability tags removed without explanation or improvement so brought it here for discussion. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:42, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Found entries at CNN and LibraryThing. Will add something later. --Ouro (blah blah) 13:09, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  @Ouro: LibraryThing doesn't provide any coverage that meet WP:NBOOK. The content seems to be user generated. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 14:29, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  @ARandomName123: Right, I figured that out by now. But even if it doesn't count as a WP-worthy source, it's still some kind of information that the book reverberated somehow in the wild. I was encouraged by the fact that LT has its WP article. I won't include it. Thanks for the heads-up. --Ouro (blah blah) 17:30, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Is it a bit better now? --Ouro (blah blah) 13:33, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: Review in CNN above, and reviews in the Library Journal and The Booklist is enough to meet WP:NBOOK (both via TWL). ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 14:32, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per above sources. Toughpigs (talk) 15:28, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
