What genre should I query my manuscript under?

Question

I think some would call it Lad Lit, since it's heavily influenced by the style popularized by Nick Hornby. Still, the fad of Lad Lit (at least in terms of a definition) seems to have come and gone. Will it work better under generic Commercial Fiction?

Answer 1

You have to ask yourself - why not? Not knowing your work it is hard to judge but I would say it would be better under general that "Lad Lit".
