Contested PROD. Recently published book, no secondary sources in the article (and none found in a good-faith search), and there is no claim to notability per WP:NBOOKS. From what I can find, the reviews mentioned in the article are not actual reviews, but the blurbs from the book jacket. ~~The notability of the author (per WP:PROF) also appears doubtful, but~~ even if he should be notable it would not follow that everything he has published meets Wikipedia's notability criteria. bonadea contributions talk 17:44, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Striking my comment on the author's notability - it has been shown that he does meet WP:PROF. The second part of the comment stands, in that every book written by a notable person is not automatically and inherently notable. --bonadea contributions talk 09:48, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I can find no evidence of notability, although I accept that it is only recently published. Comment: the article author (Susanbdoyle (talk · contribs)) is new and has only contributed to articles on the subject of this book and its author.
