These overrated literary classics have had more than enough time in the sun. It's time to spend our time with some others!

Clickbait. The writer is comparing historically-important books that are taught in literature classes to more modern books that can be read for fun.

Sure, we all read stuff for fun, that doesn't mean the books studied in literature classes are overrated.
