Article is long enough and was moved to mainspace seven days before nomination. I like ALT0 and ALT1, preference for ALT0, hook facts are interesting (especially the first one, it seems counterintuitive given the title of the book, so that should get some clicks) and present & cited in the article. The rest of the article's sourcing looks solid - Earwig shows no major concerns - and the QPQ is done. Approving ALT0 and ALT1 - ALT2 does not quite seem present in the article in its current version (doesn't quite say what the hook says, and the sentence Cliffhanger and Buried Alive! are two of Wilson's books that have boys are the protagonists of the story reads like there is a missing word somewhere.
