For the love of God, I NEED YA thrillers, mysteries and Adult Domestic Suspense outside of the suburbs. I donโt GIVE A FUCK about this setting anymore. OVER IT!!Whereas I love the suburbs (& small towns) so send to me. Maybe cause I grew up in the south in suburbs + country, but SO MUCH goes down in the suburbs and small towns.
Yes, I'm trash for stuff like Big Little Lies.
YA + Adult #mswl

#YA: Summer jobs. I'll take any fun summer job, but I'm always partial to camp. I spent my entire childhood at day camp & sleep away camp, then worked at the same day camp. Camp was so ridiculous I worked in SKIING. Yes. Skiing. At summer camp. So send me fun summer stories #MSWL

YA or MG graphic novels that intertwine the text and illustrations (think CHOPSTICKS) or that show a secondary story in the illustrations.
Literary Agent
Oo! And what about a YA (Or adult, really) where it's f/f and they're forced to work on a painting together to win scholarship money or startup money. But they hate each other and then end up having a paint fight ๐ enemies to lovers! #MSWL

I would LOVE to edit a satirical MG or YA novel about student government. Think Mean Girls meets Wag the Dog. Or, like, Election without the gross teacher. #MSWL

I love novels (MG, YA, adult any genre) that are mostly in our world but have a single magical component that changes everything. #MSWL

MG or YA NF from a scientist, doctor, engineer, etc. translating all your coolest research into something that will give young readers a leg up on saving our ship and assure them there are adults fighting the good fight right now #MSWL

Oh, and very big on my #mswl as I await cooler weather: YA and MG that feels somehow autumnal! Give me book-form crispy leaves and spiced cider (spiked or not), please. I love good, cozy stories.

#MSWL
YA Count of Monte Cristo--I love the intricacy of the plot and also justice stories with excellent character arcs.
(And I don't like the movie. Just the book.)

More #MSWL: YA with "high stakes" low stakes a la Sally Rooney with a relationship that is so emotionally charged that one text or e-mail might just mean the end of the world. Across all genres, not just contemporary!
Literary Agent
Unlikely pairings for YA rom coms, please. Give us the couple no one expects will get together, and then make them happier than everyone (even if it takes awhile to get there). #MSWL

Definitely always on the lookout for contemporary. I want all the feels, the angst. In YA, I really want mental health focus on LGBTQ+. DEFF want LGBTQ+ middle grade crushes! GIMME! #MSWL
