Re: Is there any instance where YA fiction is better than critically acclaimed classics?

The problem with most YA fiction is that a lot of it tends to be very tropey and share a lot of the same characteristics from book to book as well as contemporary popular media aimed at children. This isn't bad in and of itself, but that it's so common in YA fiction shows a lack of creativity.

I'd still rather read it than 95% of so-called 'classical literature.'

It's not a lack of creativity. It's a lack of publishers willing to publish books that step outside of what they think will sell.
