Did I say I want graphic novels? I really want to see your graphic novel proposals, especially if you are an artist. I ❤️KISS NUMBER 8, MONSTRESS (any way to do this younger? that art-deco style is to die for!), ROLLER GIRL, SANITY & TALLULAH, and anything with cats... #MSWL

there's always room for more MG and picture books on my list, too. contemporary, fantasy, somewhere in between. lots of humor, lots of heart. those MG years are weird, funny, sad, hard, beautiful, and i want to feel alllll of it. take me back. (for better or for worse) #MSWL

Other random elements I love: historical fiction, witches (historical and contemporary, but less on the humorous side), boarding schools, food, slow build romance, whimsy, retellings...#MSWL

i'm also here for smart rom coms and women's fiction, bright and joyful and swoony and fresh. unexpected love that comes in all shapes and sizes. real people, real dilemmas, real dreams. i just devoured RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE and oh my god, yes, everything about that book. #MSWLThis in YA #mswl 👇

I also love mysteries and thrillers that gravitate towards dark horror elements, like THE WHISPER MAN. One of my top reads so far this year. #MSWL

I also *loved* LONG BRIGHT RIVER, and want to see a m/s/t that centers around addiction the way this one does.
On my TBR- THE HUNTING PARTY & THE SILENT PATIENT.

Literary MG, whether that's contemporary (a la Corey Ann Haydu) or an animal POV (PAX), I want the books that are going to pull at my heartstrings but leave me uplifted. I'd also love to see something girly (UNICORN QUEST) or with complex puzzles (BENEDICT SOCIETY). #MSWL

PLOT!! This is a general wish. Send me your beautifully written stories with complex characters. But for goodness sake, let there be plot! I want characters to not only have interior obstacles but exterior ones as well, and to have changed in some way by the last page. #MSWL

An #ownvoices thriller, filled with twists and turns and an ending that gives me whiplash. I think we've seen enough unreliable narrators. I want a narrator who knows what's up but is in great jeopardy. #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day! Here are some projects I'm looking for at @parkrowbooks. (Please note, we only consider MS repped by agents -- even if you've written THE PERFECT BOOK, get that agent first.)Where are you, today's Nora Ephron? I'm wishing for a narrative non-fiction project (memoir/essays) that tackles what women are facing today, written with wit and humor and profound insight. I want to feel like I'm talking to my smartest best friend. #MSWL

Climate change is THE issue of our time, but how can we deliver it in an escapist read? If you know, send it my way! #MSWL

I love a closed set. Think MAZE RUNNER and WILDER GIRLS. Stories with with an exciting, creepy, high-stakes setting that drives plot. (And I know the perfect editor to send this to...LOL) #MSWL
