I've been able to find more information on the author than on the book itself. Apparently Rebecca Maye Holiday is a repeat judge of an international children's short story contest, and studies law and the occult at a university in Eastern Canada. I find that interesting, but is it significant by Knowledge (XXG)'s standards? Still, I'm a novice here, so I'll stand by and see what more experienced Wikipedians think.
299:. I love the title (such 18thC Gothic vibes!) but I can't find any RS coverage either. I checked ProQuest and Newspapers.com which, for such a recent book, would have the reviews if they existed. It appears to be self-published, which doesn't mean non-notable necessarily, but also reduces the likelihood that the requisite reviews foe 325:. This sounds like an awesome book and the title is pretty darn cool, but I just can't find the coverage. It's really a shame, since I really like how the author set up the cover as well. Hopefully the book will eventually get noticed and get the coverage needed for an article, but for now it's just not there. 374:
those details don’t sound “encyclopedia notable” enough to me (many people, eg, study law or the occult) but I am intrigued by your mention of censorship: that kind of thing often does involve coverage/notability. Also, although it is ideal for readers to be able to follow the sources online, it is

says a book with two independent book reviews (or other coverage) passes as “notable”. So that’s what we’re looking for. Most books, in my experience, either have bushels of reviews, passing this easily, or they have zero, which seems to be the case here.

not required— print and paywalled sources also “count”. I may have access to the Canadian records: can you tell me what you found & where? I think this book is probably hopeless regardless (record-keeping is usually

This seems like a very interesting book, but I was unable to locate substantive reviews or other coverage (excluding self-published sources like blogs). I don't think it meets
