Alexa Rank 303,323 therefore I highly doubt this is a notable website, it also looks like this article was created for promotional purposes given the user that created this article has been banned. JayJay^{Talk to me} 23:52, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy keep Please read WP:Notability. Notability isn't based on Alexa ranks. The article cites two New York Times articles and a Publishers Weekly article about the website. That's the sort of stuff notability is based on. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 03:18, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Two articles from the NY Times and two from Publishers Weekly might be might give it a Weak keep but definitely not a Strong keep. JayJay^{Talk to me} 17:29, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Meets WP: WEBCONTENT. It also meets WP: GNG, and has very reliable sources, including the NY Times. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 00:06, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy weak keep though it may be better to merge the content into a list of online book clubs or something, its not going to have extensive content, Sadads (talk) 15:55, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - While the coverage currently in the article is not very extensive, it does pass WP:GNG. The article could certainly use some addition of reliable sources and expansion, which I have started to do. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 23:53, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
