Reply w/ any South Indian recs you have for Kid Lit (esp if South Indian American reps). Thx!I live a few blocks from India Square in Jersey City, and would LOVE love love love love to see way more manuscript in my inbox about my neighbors and their cultures. #mswl

There's often a lot of bending over backwards in YA to create alternate worlds/societies that are led by teenagers/young adults. Why not pull from real life and give me a book about riding the rails/hobo culture? I'm fascinated. #MSWL

Hey, authors who are knitters--how about a book that revolves around "the sweater curse" and the magic (or myth) therein? #MSWL

#MSWL Not just (another) YA novel about having anxiety, but about the misunderstandings that arise between friends when one DOESN'T have anxiety, and how to deal.

#MSWL: The photos that we have of space may have been taken recently, but the images they show are thousands of years old, thanks to how light travels. I'm not typically one for alien stories, but I'm curious about how this would affect that circumstance.

#MSWL: A near-future novel about the end of the open internet, and how a grassroots rebellion is communicated and grown BOTH analog/off the grid and by circumventing Big Brother online. Give me handwritten codes, brilliant strategy, and principled hackers, please!

Honestly, I just want to read a slim, elegant novel about museum gays who go to the Getty and maybe get involved in art forgery, but like, without all the brocade of Donna Tartt. Something lucid, like Claire Messud or Joan Didion. But gay. In museums.Alyssa Jennette is closed to queries! @AlyssaJennette · 1 Nov 2017
Just came from coffee w/ the deputy director of @MorganLibrary--how did I not know the 1st director was a white-passing black woman?! #MSWL

I want to read about friends with unusual & practical talents. Locks/safecracking, forgery, etc. You decide how they employ them. :) #MSWL

My boo @niv_tales sent me this article & I'm reeling. How magical is this? bbc.com/travel/story/2…#MSWL It's got history, a struggle between mother and daughter, magical arts bound to nature--what's not to like?

I'd also still love a YA epistolary in texts, chats, and emails about getting Catfished! #MSWL

A book that about the fashion world in the vein of how Black Swan treated the ballet world. Think dark and twisty Devil Wears Prada. #MSWLThe heels are pointy, the nails are sharp and perfectly manicured, & someone is likely plotting to poison a coworker with laxative. #MSWL

Another I'm still dying for: Missed Connections YA romance. I'm a sucker for both parties making the effort to find each other again! #MSWL
