Fails WP:NBOOK. Closest thing to a claim of notability in the article is being on a top-12-productivity-books-of-the-year list from Evernote... which is a scheduling app, not what we would usually consider a significant source for such. The 100 word review in Library Journal is not in-depth coverage. Nat Gertler (talk) 21:12, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Ellen Petry Leanse. While I agree with the nom (no significant and reliable reviews available to meet NBOOK or GNG threshold), we could redirect the article to the author's page, which already contains details about the book. Lourdes 22:25, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, that article, at best, is in need of some work. --Nat Gertler (talk) 23:28, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sure. I understand that. But a redirect seems a good alternative to deletion till the author's page still exists on Wikipedia. Lourdes 03:52, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect. Unsourced self-help promotional psycho-babble. BLP of its author should be deleted too. Xxanthippe (talk) 05:16, 6 January 2018 (UTC).[reply]

• I would be fine with a redirect so long as the other article exists. I do not have time at the moment to do the WP:BEFORE on that article. --Nat Gertler (talk) 07:09, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to author. Not a notable book. Natureium (talk) 20:14, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
