Delete, does not meet WP:NBOOK or WP:GNG, no useable sources found that contributes to notability. Coolabahapple (talk) 11:23, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There's nothing out there to back up the claims, especially the claims of it being the first self-published book to hit the mystery novel bestseller lists on the named sites. Besides, these are not notable bestseller lists, as they're hard to verify and change pretty quickly. There's also an issue with people getting their way on these lists because they purchased their own copies or because they listed it during the time when books offered for free could place on the main bestseller list instead of the free bestseller list Amazon created specifically for them.
