I want to read a novel that carries the same amount of emotional tension as the end scene in Homeward Bound, when you're waiting to see if the second dog, Shadow, made it.
I don't think it can be done. #MSWL

Lately video games are BRINGING IT when it comes to emotional family narratives. My goodness.
I’d love to read a SFF novel that gives me the same feels as God of War or Horizon Zero Dawn. #mswl

I'm so hungry for a good YA sci-fi novel that gives me Mass Effect vibes. Where the character arcs and relationships are just as in-depth as the world building.
I feel like @RantingOwl @rhodabee and @SanguMandanna NAIL this with their books.
Send me something like that. #MSWL

Justina Ireland is Bad at Hiatus @justinaireland
Thesis: the reason Vampires haven’t made a reappearance in YA since Twilight is because the category sanitized them and removed the nuanced queerness that was the hallmark of vampire novels. And for vampires to rise again they will have to be queer.Send. This. To. Me. #MSWL

I want a YA novel about teens in the mid-90's running B.B.S. systems on their home computers, and getting into various hijinx over modems.
Where are you, my geeky writer? #MSWL

Currently watching Wild Wild Country, and it is making me REALLY want a novel that'll leave me as shaken as The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly by @StephanieEOakes. #MSWL

After finishing the @netflix reboot of @lostinspacetv, all I want is a good family drama... that just happens to be in space. #MSWL
Send me your accessible sci-fi, please!

Don't forget, even when everything feels like it's on fire, the world still needs your playful rom-com novels about kissing. <3 #MSWL

I'm not saying I have a brand, but @TheAdamSass' debut is the second book I'm pitching around that I'm comping to Last Seen Leaving by @MikalebRoehrig. The first was @tomryanauthor's (out next year!).
So. Hi yes, send me your inclusive YA thrillers. #MSWL

Watching @UnRealLifetime with @BeautyBritches and thinking about how bad I want to read a book like this.
Like The Last One (goodreads.com/book/show/2724…), but maybe YA. #mswl

I would love to read a YA novel set in the 90's about a teen in a ska band.
I would totally pick it up pick it up pick it up-
I'm sorry.
But really I want to read that. #MSWL

Is there a steampunk novel out there like I, Robot?
Kinda love the idea of steampunk automatons and creatures gaining sentience and independence.
Someone send me this. #MSWL
