I really love these books, and I think it has to do with how smart they are while still being so simplistic and approachable. The author has so deftly nailed the thought process of a college student studying literature (and I was one so I get it), and the book manages to follow her story while weaving in the reflections of the things she’s learning about, which I do think is so crucial to developing a character like this. It’s like the meeting of a novel and research paper, while still managing to feel so real and true to what someone like this would experience.
