Give me the Winter Soldier or John Wick-type character on their journey of revenge and redemption. They do bad things to people who’ve hurt them or others. #mswl

Protagonists who struggle (and fail) on their way to being the hero (gender neutral as used here). #mswl

More space operas, more non-Milky Way planet colonies, more alien species POV in stories. I don’t want medieval Europe in space! #mswl

I will never get bored with enemies-to-lovers or forced proximity romance tropes. Conflict must be high stakes. I want the tension between the couple to be off the charts. #mswl

Bad ass single Dads (thank you, The Mandalorian). Does not have to be part of a romance, but the badassery and “I’ll kill you and your ghost if you hurt my kid” vibe must be strong. #mswl

#MSWL Any funny or light-hearted mss w/ BIG dogs included in substantial way? I never see big dogs, like my Great Danes, in books. The dogs are always those pocket-sized thingies.

#MSWL I can't get the animated film "The Breadwinner" out of my head. Beautiful, jarring, sad, strong, hopeful... all the emotions. I really want MG or YA with cultural depth.

#MSWL If you binge-watched "Altered Carbon" on Netflix and have a SFF mss full of jaw-dropping tech, cool characters, heart-thumping action, & tension that won't let go...
