I think what I liked about that book was there was a good story with a sense of a mystery and drama but also had a nice amount of philosophy (although some bits I couldn’t understand!) and interesting characters and moral questions.
I also loved the beautiful descriptions of the sea and the simplicity and solitude of the setting (even though it got a bit repetitive towards the end).
Donna Tart’s The Secret History is also a book I love because of that rich descriptive style and character exploration (although I found it dragged a bit in certain parts).

Oh and maybe the unreliable narrator is something i like too – but ideally I’d like a character that isn’t so annoying lol
