In June 2023, her book The Riddle of Literary Quality: A Computational Approach was published by Amsterdam University Press, in open access. This book contains an accessible synthesis of the results of the project The Riddle of Literary Quality, which ran from 2012 - 2019 and was funded by the Computational Humanities Programme of the KNAW (the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences). A longer version of the book was published by AUP in 2021 under the title Het raadsel literatuur: is literaire kwaliteit meetbaar? More information can be found on the website accompanying the book.
