Notability and copyvio
Hi! I've deleted the page, but it was ultimately because you copied content directly from here. This is considered to be a copyright violation and as such, had to be removed. All content must be written in your own words.

However the other problem is that the article didn't show where the book meets notability guidelines per WP:NBOOK. Books aren't automatically notable because they exist and you'd have to show where the book has received coverage in places like newspapers or reviews by outlets like Booklist. From what I can see, the book is either self-published or is very indie and unfortunately books in either grouping have a lot of trouble finding coverage. Most of the time they won't gain coverage in any place other than self-published sources like book blogs or in WP:PRIMARY sources like an official Facebook page, neither of which can establish notability. I'm sorry, but I just don't see where the book passes notability guidelines. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  08:29, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
