Delete. The Fan Sided review is probably usable since the site has an editorial board, although I will note that I don't see anything that shows that they edit reader submissions. In any case, that's only one source and not enough in this instance to show notability. The only other thing I can find is this mention in Sarasota Magazine. This might have been useful except that the bit reads like a promotion for the Miracle Belt and as such, seems like it was taken directly from a press release. I just can't see where there's enough out there to show that this book passes notability guidelines. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:47, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Since this will be the fifth incarnation of this article, I'd recommend salting just to ensure that it doesn't get recreated. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:47, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
