I'd really love some speculative contemporary YA or MG. Creepy woods. Elemental powers. Out of body experiences. Alternative worlds.

So Berkley is famed for its cozy mysteries (go peep @BerkleyMystery to learn more!) and I've thought about what kind of pet I'd be if I were in a cozy mystery.I believe I'd be a chicken.

Okay, up next is my #MSWL so that I can provide you with more books to love. Currently looking for female-centric romantic suspense, hilarious contemporary romances, flirty historicals, millennial anything, and urban fantasy (ya hate to see it)

#MSWL I’d love to see some Latinx/Jewish contemporary YA... Or a retelling of Romeo & Juliet with the protagonists both devout but different religions... Or a great MG mystery that more Mo LeBeau and less Nancy Drew & ClueCrew.Oops! #MSWL Day is tomorrow!
Well, at least I’m on brand. I’m always the early bird! 😊🐥📚

I’d cut off my arm for a contemporary thriller/horror novel where the protagonist joins their high school/college’s soccer team and finds out it’s a cult #mswl

Excited to see that Tayari Jones has a new novel. I loved American Marriage for many reasons, but particularly because it felt so Southern.I am dying for more contemporary Southern stories. Please send them to me. #MSWL

I’d love more YA contemporaries. Give me angst, heartache, love, issues, crisis, and VOICE!!! Show me your story will stand out, and make me feel like a teen is showing me their story, not an adult telling me about it. Give me all the feels! #mswl #amquerying #writingcommunityI’m still looking for this👇🏻and #ownvoices and #diversity too!!! #MSWL #amquerying #writingcommunity

Is anyone else into the show Let's Eat because I'd really love a #ownvoices #DV, contemporary #YA book with the same kind of style about a MC who just lives for food. Also if it could include some mouth-watering descriptions I would appreciate it. Cool thanks! #mswl

Because I don’t have enough: I rep ADULT ROMANCE, HISTORICAL, SCI-FI, FANTASY. I rep MG CONTEMPORARY, HISTORICAL, SCI-FI, FANTASY. In addition to the YA Fantasy I have, I also rep YA CONTEMPORARY, SCI-FI, HISTORICAL, THRILLER/PARANORMAL! #MSWL please.

Listening to Steve Reich (thanks @TommyVierbuchen--this is amazing) is reminding me of my kookiest current #mswl: a TRICK MIRROR-like--fun! But brilliant! But crucially fun!--cultural crit book in appreciation of circularity and stasis in contemporary music/art/literature.

I truly adore royal romances as much as the next, but someone please send me a soapy, spite-filled YA contemporary version of The Other Boleyn Girl. Like, you want a Christmas prince/princess? You gotta fucking FIGHT for them. Possibly with your own sister #MSWL
