Notability for books and authors
I thought I'd explain why the articles are up for deletion or will be deleted. Ultimately this all boils down to coverage in independent and reliable sources per WP:RS, to show that the book passes WP:NBOOK and the author WP:NAUTHOR.

Amazon sales figures and social media fan counts cannot be used to show notability, although popularity can make it more likely that there will be coverage. (WP:POPULARITY) While I'm not saying that this is the case in this instance, part of the reason these things do not count towards notability anymore is because there have been so many cases of people buying followers or doing things to alter their Amazon sales rankings. You can read about some of the things people have done as far as these go here, here, and here. It's sad, but it happens and people have done this in order to gain more attention. Also, knowing famous people or otherwise having ties to them will not give something notability since notability is WP:NOTINHERITED.

So what can be used to show notability? Newspaper reviews can do this, as can things like article coverage in websites like Publishers Weekly. Here are examples of coverage that can be used: article via PW, NYT review. Sometimes landing on a bestselling list can give notability if it's a major list like the New York Times, but lists on places like Amazon do not quality for this.

Now for what can't be used: self-published sources like blogs cannot show notability, nor can WP:PRIMARY sources like the author's website (or anything released by someone or something affiliated with him). The reason SPS cannot show notability is because they undergo little to no verifiable editorial oversight. Sometimes, rarely, they can be used but this would require that the source is widely reported on as a reliable source by known and trusted reliable sources.
