Does not meet WP:NBOOK. Sources are either primary or press releases, the one independent source has insufficient depth to establish notability. Drm310 (talk) 17:50, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, article creator is likely one of its authors and therefore has a WP:COI. --Drm310 (talk) 17:53, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as non-notable as nom, sources do not establish notability (one labelled as a review is nothing of the sort: the other is a press release)TheLongTone (talk) 18:45, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There's only one source that is independent (two are firsthand and one has nothing to do with the subject matter) and as established above, the one independent source is neither reliable enough nor sufficient enough to warrant notability.

Userfy until after the book's full release and more reviews by independent press. The creator is the co-author and has all but identified herself as such on her own Talk page. While this is a blatant COI, this is the editor's first foray onto Wikipedia and she might be a valuable editor otherwise in the future; perhaps she didn't know any better. Also there's no way of knowing whether the book will be notable or not until it is fully released and reviewed. Could be that keeping the article userfied and onhand might be worthwhile in the future. Softlavender (talk) 08:06, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
