Is it a fad, though? I mean, if that rule that 90% of everything is crap is true, then it's true of YA books and literature both. I think part of the problem is that people conflate "the classics" with lit-fic. The classics being stuff that they're made to read for school, and that, most of the time, anyway, has been sifted from the piles and piles of books that were published at the same time because they're still worth reading. There were forgettable popular novels published by the bucketload a century and a half ago, too, and mostly, people don't read them anymore. The problem I personally have with lit-fic, as distinct from "literature," is that as a genre it sort of circumvents the whole "sorted by time" aspect of actual classics, and every year a shit-ton of books get labeled "timeless classics" and are published with book-club reader guides already in them, because they're "deep." But that doesn't make them good. The only way to tell if a book is timeless is to see if a lot of people will still read it years down the road, or even centuries down the road. Every other sort of book is labeled forgettable right out of the gate and will have to still be in the public consciousness in a century to be considered literarture. I dislike most lit-fic because it gloms onto the classics and gets labeled "deep, profound, and unforgettable," before anyone's even had time to forget about it.
