I voted neither. Because, yuck.

That said, I’m being a little harsh and might have tempered my vote to other speculative fiction. I’ll never read fantasy which is the stuff of kidlit to me. And while I can enjoy kidlit, it’s only if I’m reading it with a kid. (I only read HP, for example, because I started it with a young nephew.) SF is more nuanced for me. It’s a rarity among the books I read, but I do like the occasional dystopian or time travel novel. But it’s got to be set in a recognizable world with no aliens or other planets, certainly no anthropomorphic furry beings. I also dislike stories of the final battle between good and evil type.
