Anyway, the literature angle was pleasing to me, but of course that is not what makes the puzzle great. The real joy came from how chock full o' original answers this one, as well as how smoothly it flowed. I kept being happily surprised every time I turned a corner. There was no part that felt thrown away or neglected. From CROWDSURFS to SHOOED AWAY, I found this one charming. I might have found it easier than most because I solve the New Yorker crossword every day, and Natan is a regular constructor there. Their puzzles definitely run more literary than the NYTXW (Natan's most recent puzzle for them had ALLEN GINSBURG crossing NIKKI GIOVANNI!). So I've been secretly training for this, you might say. I recommend this same training to you. (YES, YOU!)
After that, the hits just kept coming. From CROWDSURFS to "BLUE'S CLUES" to POSE NUDE to SLUMPED to SUPEREGO, there's really nowhere to get bored. I think the NE corner was probably the weakest section, but it's not actually weak, it just looks a little STALE only by comparison to everything else, so ... we're good. I love the energy of B.S. METER (14D: Ability to detect misinformation, slangily) though I've only ever heard it referred to as a "bullshit detector." If someone said "B.S. METER" I'd probably ask them to repeat themselves. But it feeeeels like something someone would say, and I had no problem getting it, so OK. The only real grimace-face I made today was at DELINT (17D: Use a roller on, in a way), which I don't like as a word despite the fact that with two cats in the house I DELINT (i.e. DECATHAIR) quite a bit. As for MECHA, I recommend (mecha-mend?) that you store that one away, as I have seen it a bunch in other puzzles lately (most recently, I think, the LAT) (1D: Anime and manga genre involving robots). Constructors seem to have gotten wind that it is a thing, and they are beginning to put it into heavy rotation. Had a little trouble in the RAMA / MEMO area, for some reason (mainly just couldn't get MEMO (53A: Format of some N.S.A. leaks)), and then wrote in GAME ROOM and later GAME AREA before finally alighting on GALLERIA at 31D: Indoor arcade. Otherwise, this one was truly right on my wavelength, in the most delightful of ways. Hope your day was brightened by the solving experience, as mine was. See you tomorrow.

I had my first "oh, dang, that's good" moment early on, when I stared at 19A: Final four? and then stared at HORS- and thought "what the hell do horses ... have to do ... with ... finality ... Ohhhhhhhhhhh! Dang, that's good."
