I did a bit of reaearch on the first one: The Zen of Therapy by Mark Epstein, according to the publisher, Penguin Random House, the book is only available for pre-order and the January, 2022 date seems to be when they will actually publish it. https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/656323/the-zen-of-therapy-by-mark-epstein-md/

The second book, Poirot, according to the publisher, HarperCollins, is only available in hardcover, audio, and ebook, there is no pre-order option for the paperback, but I am guessing, based upon the first book, that these are planned publication dates from the publishers themselves. Based on that, I don't know if you'd really want to remove them just yet. Please let me know what you think.

Given the pending publication date, I'd consider this valid. Thanks for working through all these!
