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

[diet_poison]

ok, shelving makes sense because some people look for books that have the YA tag on them.

But it's weird to me to say "YA isn't my cup of tea" when it's not really unified in content, just in whether they have a certain publishing label.

[(Anonymous)]

That's a completely fair point, with the qualification that I think you could make more or less the same point about most of the genres that are out there - certainly about SF&F and mystery.

So I would stand by the idea that YA is a genre - but you're right in that it's probably a good idea to be pretty relaxed about what that means, and to understand it pretty loosely.

I don't think YA is as unified as a category than SFF, mystery, nonfiction, etc. but at that point it's all relative, I guess.
