I love the vs literature comments. I immediately thought of the whole experience of going into the bookstore lately - nothing is ever where it's 'supposed' to be and even if I know the item is in stock I really have to look for it. If the author is billed as a paranormal romance author, I'll find her stuff in fantasy. If she writes mainly urban fantasy, I have to check the horror section. The line is getting so blurry there's little justification left for book snobbery.
