I had (obviously incorrectly) speedied this a year and a half ago when it was a new article, the speedy was declined and it stayed there, until recent edits popped it in my watchlist again.

The obvious concern is notability, in particular WP:AUTHOR. the only book review I found was, which I think falls under "passing mention". Maybe writing for children/young adults explains the lack of "real" review in the press, but well, we need some source. Tigraan Click here to contact me 15:33, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete - many young adult fiction books get reviewed, so if this hasn't been then it's possibly because this is not a notable author. Bearian (talk) 21:06, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete Despite being described as a "best-selling" author, no established notability through WP:GNG or WP:NAUTHOR. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 21:30, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as it's clear none of this amounts to substance and he's not notable as an author with followed significance. SwisterTwister   talk  21:43, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
