I'd also love to see a new take on Beaches (you know, the Bette Midler-Barbara Hershey movie), which I just re-watched - I'm really all over this best friends thing #MSWL

A weekend reading series I attended reminded me of another #MSWL: adult best friend stories. Those relationships run so deep so what happens when they fall apart? Send me your friendships gone awry stories!

#MSWL #LGBT How about hist fic where nobleman's WIFE finds a mistress and must conceal their love? 😍I second this #MSWL. I'd totally also be down for a historical where a woman is married and knows her husband is in love with another man, but they're best friends, so she helps him hide it from the public, or vice versa. Read one like this once and am still in love with it.

Gimme a contemporary women's novel about two best friends and the podcast that drove them apart. #mswl

I know I’m a month late, but I just watched Set It Up and, holy crap, I have missed rom coms so so so much. It was everything I’ve been missing on screen. Also, female friendships and a kickass female boss? GIVE ME ALL ROM COMS LIKE THISAnd on that note, I need a rom com to represent. Smart characters, little bit of mayhem, romance that makes me swoon, lady friendships, lady bosses, diversity. All things that make me smile and happy. If you have it, please send it! #MSWL

I'd also love to see more MG Contemporary that showcases friendships, in particular m/f in which a crush isn't part of the plot. #mswl

I'm still looking for domestic suspense, but am tired of the husband/wife scenario. I'd like one featuring a mother and child or a friendship. #askagent #MSWL

Reminder that not all work by POC must be weighty, dramatic books. White authors got to write thousands of fluffy books and cash the checks. We shouldn't be appreciated only when it gets dark and horrible.THIS!!!!

A book I never, ever stop thinking about: The After Party by Anton DiSclafani.
I loved this one & wish I could read it again for the first time.
That plot twist, the friendship drama, the setting, themes of motherhood.
Perfection.
Send me this. #MSWL

It seems like a good time to remind authors of my #MSWL. That way when I come back Tuesday I'll have plenty waiting for me.I would love to find a good beachy, women's fiction read. Something about friends, beaches, small towns, that sort of thing #MSWL

But not every book needs a romantic interest of any kind. Romance isn't something everyone has/wants. I love friendship stories. I love found family stories. Have a book that understands that friendship is as fraught and rewarding as any other relationship? Please query me. #MSWL

My complete #MSWL is live, and yes, I did watch all of Stranger Things season one in a day - don't judge! Check out what I'm looking for here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/tess…
