      Yeah, it's a bit weird since literature is definitely a subject that straddles the line of all of those groups. Though I personally think that given the notoriety of the author and analytical nature of most of the annotations, this is perfectly acceptable content for ~humanities, which I feel has a slightly higher barrier to entry for literature than ~creative or ~books generally does.

      They even have some complete novels on the site! Some of my students used the annotations for The Great Gatsby as a study aid when we read it as a class.
