Fails WP:GNG and WP:NBOOK. Deleted at AfD in 2022, but recreated recently. However, the sources are no better – they are all primary interviews with the author or PR websites (or both) and don't pass RS. The only claim of notability is a supposed endorsement from a Fox News reporter, but I can't find any direct proof of this, only reports of it by Zarah herself or in other non-RS sources.

  • Delete. No hits at Kirkus, Booklist, or PW; I can't find even one review for NBOOK. The Fox News quote appears to be a back cover endorsement type of thing rather than a published review, and thus can't contribute to NBOOK (I also couln't find an actual source for it). ~ L 🌸 (talk) 02:57, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Already at AFD before, so not eligible for Soft Deletion.

  • Delete: Only links to buy the book are what I find, no sort of reviews. This is likely PROMO. Being featured on a billboard isn't notable, neither is much of anything else listed here. Oaktree b (talk) 00:22, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
