 Also, Amazon.ca did indeed try to spell check Justin Lieber to Justin
Bieber. But it's easy to get past that.
 However, the results for the right name didn't include this book, even
though the entry for it
 https://www.amazon.ca/Beyond-Rejection-Justin-Leiber/dp/B000FMIA7S/
 did have the right author's name.

The SFF family spelling is "LEIBER".  It catches
out a lot of readers.
And while I'm picking: James's article says
"Ismael" throughout for the protagonist's name -
when they aren't going by Patricia - and that
seems to be agreed on.  But in the teaser here,
it's Ishmael.
Yes, the /title/ of the review is, "Also, There
Are Moby Dick References".
This doesn't appear to be a line from a song.
Did those stop and I didn't notice?
