Iāve been in such a Mood for two very different kinds of books:
(1) Southern fiction a la Kristy Woodson Harvey, with warmth, setting as character, female friendships and/or multigenerational families, and secrets/hardships that come to light. Can be A or YA!
#mswl
While I do love the classic AND THEN THERE WERE NONE set up, I'd love to get more locked-room mysteries with unconventional settings. #MSWL

In speculative fiction Iād like to see more climate-related books. Just learned about popping shrimp. Crazy. Books like Dry for adult audiences. #queryme #MSWL querymanager.com/query/Jessica_ā¦

ā¢ Adult sci fi! I need, like, an EXTREMELY energetic space opera. I want a sensory explosion in space, an enemy so frightening I get nightmares, that I'll come to understand and hopefully empathize with, too. Show me how the characters misunderstood their whole universe.Would really, really love to see this in my query box! #mswl

Dang! This nonfiction graphic novel sounds amazing! I love that it has a strong POV, a cool hook + an informative takeaway thatās super relevant. Would love to rep graphic NF books like this! #mswl (Also my usual potty mouth says dang now thanks to better-mannered @adriamgoetz)
*UPDATED #MSWL* I made a lot of changes to what I'm looking for, so check out the link and send me your queries!

#MSWL A YA book that fits on the shelf with PRACTICAL MAGIC, THE PARTICULAR SADNESS OF LEMON CAKE or THE ENCHANTED CHOCOLATE POT. But gay.FYI this #MSWL is evergreen, but now I'll take your adult versions, too šš¼
