Option 1

 * Article title: Thirteen Reasons Why
 * Article Evaluation:
 * The article has a fairly standard organization, but there are a few additional sections added that might back more sense if moved to the plot/summary section, for example the section on characters. The talk page mentioned some arguments over whether or not to include how character names in the series vary from the names in the book.
 * The lead section includes very weak wording, for example stating that the book has received "lots of recognition." I think that this section could be better condensed.
 * The plot section is too short for the topic at hand; should be expanded.
 * The article's sources have not been updated since 2017. With the exception of one comment added in 2020, there has not been discussion on the article since 2017. Since the article is rated of high-importance, but start-class, it could be expanded.

Option 2

 * Article title: The Witches (novel)
 * Article Evaluation:
 * Most of the work done on the article is from early 2000's, with some additions done around 2010. The organization of the article is lacking in some of the more recent parameters on structure, but that could just be from age.
 * The plot section is entirely too long. It should be condensed or at least reviewed to make sure the length is appropriate.
 * The section of reception discusses how the book is now seen as sexist, but the sources are from early 2000's. It would be interesting to see how more modern literature reviews this work by Dahl, a prominent children's author.
 * Sources: (it should be noted there is little additional modern literature on this work)

Option 3

 * Article title: King and King
 * Article Evaluation:
 * The article's organization is that of a standard book entry.
 * The article seems pretty good in terms of layout and information, but no additional information has been added since 2008. This may be why the article still remains at start-class classification.
