#tenqueries takeaways: 1) I'm getting a lot of YA fantasy, but I still like it. 2) though these particular thrillers weren't right for me, I'm interested in character driven adult and YA suspense/thrillers and would be eager to find a big, irresistible one. #mswl

#MSWL - I'd love to find a literary historical novel, MG, YA or adult. A great YA romance or adult sibling story with a historical backdrop.
