![]() ![]() Urban fiction is the broader term, urban fantasy is more specific. A lot of people tend to think that means it’s urban fiction, but while urban fiction and urban fantasy may have some overlap, they’re not exactly the same thing. ![]() ![]() It’s a fantasy novel that’s set in an urban landscape. Urban fantasy is defined by the setting of the book. I love solid science fiction and magical realism especially, though there are times when nothing can satisfy my YA genre needs quite like an urban fantasy novel. I don’t hold back because I’m afraid of trying new things but rather because I like to make sure I keep way on top of realistic fiction.īut every time I’ve wandered outside my zone, I’ve found myself remembering how amazing genre fiction in YA is. Because realistic fiction is the bread and butter of my YA reading, I have to be really conscious of making sure I step outside of that comfort zone and try books in YA that fall into other genres. ![]()
