but not so fast... Library Journal, School Library Journal (YA lit), and even to some extent Publishers Weekly are trade publications for librarians. Their reviews are short (51-250 words), largely indiscriminate (they help librarians determine which books to purchase, not just the most important ones), and largely unhelpful for purposes of building an encyclopedia article that does justice to the topic (the |general notability guideline). (I have the 1997 print Book Review Index in front of me. It only lists those three trade publications and no other periodicals, indicating a minor release.) This said, the reviews from Mississippi Quarterly, The Western Journal of Black Studieshttp://public.wsu.edu/~wjbs/bkrev.html, and the Los Angeles Times are together sufficient as a baseline. And if not, we should be looking for a merge target rather than outright deletion.
