2010 or 2014 publication date[edit]

i've written the article based on the 2014 edition as that is the one that all/most of the reviews are based, info on 2010 self publish is included as a note in the infobox, we could also have a publication history (see next section) Coolabahapple (talk) 18:20, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

lots more to do with this article[edit]

there is a lot of info out in netland on this book that can be included in the article:

- publication history ie. self published in 2010;

- publication development, there are some interviews with Shraya about this book, also that she identified as male and queer when she first published it;

- awards including 23rd Lambda nominee, 2015 South Asia Book Award nominee, 2015 USBBY Outstanding International Book - and heres a cool google map version of the 2015 books:), 2015 South Asia Book Award Honor

also more reviews, i have only included the "easy ones", others may just be "snips" though.

if anyone wants to add stuff from above list (or other info i have missed:)) you are more than welcome. Coolabahapple (talk) 19:04, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

and of course a contents/plot section, duuhhhh

Coolabahapple (talk) 19:09, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've tagged the intro because it's far too short, and a more detailed plot summary needs to be included. The subject should be covered beyond just praises and awards. Unfortunately notability is an issue, as third-party sources are seriously lacking; searches turn up mostly niche gay-lifestyle blogs and generic book websites. sixtynine ^{• speak up •} 00:35, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

if you've read it, great, increase the lead and add a plot:), as for "notability is an issue, as third-party sources are seriously lacking" here is WP:NBOOK:

"1.The book has been the subject[1] of two or more non-trivial[2] published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself.[3] This includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists,[4] and reviews(my emphasis)). This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy,..", this book meets this requirement with the 8 reviews in the article. Coolabahapple (talk) 07:36, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
