 * Keep. This should stand or fall with the article about the author, Tabitha King, which is currently at AfD and, I suggest, likely to result in the retention of the article.  Even if it doesn't, this has received national-level attention from the American media and I suggest it easily meets notability standards.  Ubelowme U  Me  02:18, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment. The Tabitha King AfD closed with a result of "keep".  I continue to suggest that this should do the same.  Ubelowme U  Me  12:20, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Irrelevant. A book does not inherit notability from its author.Curb Chain (talk) 20:21, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you'll find the cited reviews from Entertainment Weekly, the Chicago Tribune, the Arizona Daily Star and Publishers Weekly more relevant. Ubelowme U  Me  00:06, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

 * No, the ones that are cited within the body of the One on One (novel) article that is the subject of this discussion. (For the provision of these, we have Tokyogirl79 to thank.) Ubelowme U  Me  02:57, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Well these sources are irrelevant to the Tabitha King AfD is it; see also WP:WAX?Curb Chain (talk) 04:28, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * To be specific, I'm suggesting that the book, One on One, which is the subject of this AfD, meets criterion #1 of WP:BKCRIT, which I believe is the relevant standard. The book does so by dint of the national-level cited reviews I noted above; it doesn't really matter who wrote it.  Although I do not suggest that Ms. King meets criterion #5, it says that, yes, books do in some cases inherit notability from their authors.
