It may seem premature but...

I am creating this article and talkpage several months in advance of the book's publication date because Palin is very notable, and there are likely to be advance reviews that will contain information suitable for inclusion in the article. Also, based on her record in getting her previous book out right on schedule, I think this new book will be available as announced, on Nov 23.KeptSouth (talk) 15:59, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Normally we don't create articles about future books (at least, not a long time before they are released), but this one may be notable enough to be an exception. However, we can only have this article on the presumption that this book will in fact be released as announced; if for whatever reason it doesn't happen, the article should be deleted.

"highly sensitive article"

The article mentions no controversy concerning this book, neither particular attention payed to its content. What is the sensitive issue here? Dimadick (talk) 12:04, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

To be honest, I think the creator of the article/talk page merely copied over the tags from the Going Rogue article. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 20:58, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
I probably did see the pbneutral tag on the Going Rogue page and copied it here - it renders as "highly sensitive...issue", so strictly speaking, I was making an assumption. However, that assumption has already proven to be correct. The categories I listed for the book (as opposed to the talk page), are based on what the book is supposed to be about, and don't really match up the Going Rogue categories. KeptSouth (talk)

Beyond the 22nd page of a Google search

Interesting fact - unlike most Wikipedia articles that appear very close to the top of a Google search, this one is now somewhere past the 22nd page. In fact, if you search America by Heart Wikipedia, it comes up as this as the fourth choice.[1] The censor gods must not like this article for some reason. Now, let's see if this comment disappears from this page. - KeptSouth (talk) 12:08, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

It is true the article needs more detail including a description of the book contents and more reviews, but of course, all this will be forthcoming as the book has just hit the stores today. So I do wonder about the obvious demotion - KeptSouth (talk) 12:10, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
