- Weak Keep - The BBC has covered it here. Google News also shows some reviews behind pay walls. The bulk of the article looks like a copy-paste of a book review especially with the recommendation at the end. That will need some serious copyediting. -- Whpq (talk) 17:55, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I added several references. The book has been reviewed by the BBC, reprinted multiple times, and distributed in at least 12 countries [1]. You were right, Whpq, the bulk of the article was a cut-and-paste from the book's front flap; I deleted it. It's now a stub - but a referenced, notable stub. --MelanieN (talk) 02:07, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, it needs expansion and plot, but it's notable. Glimmer721 talk 23:47, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
