can we have more about toxic friendships in YA? about how hard it is to walk away from a relationship that might be more intimate than a romantic one? about how toxic friendships can cut you deeper than you could imagine?

Thereās a post circulating tumblr/Facebook asking why so many tween girls go through a witchy āletās read fortunes and levitateā sleepover/jr. coven phase. I actually talked to an expert about this exact thing two years ago! medium.com/the-establishmā¦I would die for a YA/MG along these lines. #MSWL Real magic or just imagined, doesn't matter. I especially like stories that focus on girl friendships/sisterhood.

I can't tell you how much I say I want to acquire books about friendships, especially how to deal with either growing up and apart or having an incident that breaks the friendship apart. #MSWL twitter.com/Jene_e_edwardsā¦How many times have I asked for this? Give me my friendship breakup bookāit hurts at every age. #MSWL

been thinking about how the worst heartbreak iāve ever suffered was from a friendship breakup, and how that is so rarely explored in YA. i didnāt know how to cope because i didnāt know anyone who had gone through something that intense. we need to fix this.I can't tell you how much I say I want to acquire books about friendships, especially how to deal with either growing up and apart or having an incident that breaks the friendship apart. #MSWL

Reading @AshWritesā new book, and remembering @WriteinBKās talk yesterday at the festival, Iām reminded how badly I want to read more YA friendship books.
If youāre writing one, query me next year when Iām open again. ā¤ļø #MSWL

#MSWL I always fall for the "best friends should be dating" trope but lately I'd also love a bff pair who love and admire one another's beautiful selves but also do not want to bang. Think Jack & Liz or Harry & Hermione or John Kimble & Phoebe O'Hara (Kindergarten Cop, y'all).100% this! #MSWL

Looking for a modern-day #YA #SisterhoodoftheTravelingPants with strong, positive female friendships! Magic realism is always a plus! #MSWL

#MSWL A novel--for any age group--about the breaking point in a friendship or family relationship. Tell me about having the strength to end contact with someone who can't be helped/is actively toxic. Relatedly: a book about intentional familial estrangement and its effects.#MSWL By the way, the person doing the ending can be decisive AND devastated. It happens all the time! The agony comes before and after the decision is made, but that doesn't mean the decision isn't a clear one.
