I’m always looking for domestic mystery/thriller/suspense with a determined female protagonist told in a new way. #mswl

But I also look for a “lean forward” plot. Whether a domestic mystery, family saga, upmarket fiction, or light-hearted romcom, send me your novels with that page-turning quality that keep me reading late into the night. #mswl

I am a sucker for a rich setting and for the complex characters who live in them. So give me your Deep South red dirt, your frozen Minnesota winters, or any other visceral setting that makes me feel transported, and make me care about the people who call it home. #mswl

I’m a Nora Ephron devotee. Send me your smart, funny leading ladies finding their way in life and love. Bonus points for a vivid setting. #mswl

I would love to see an immersive 1900s historical novel that takes the reader into the life of a familiar historical figure. Can be commercial, upmarket or literary e.g. The Swans of Fifth Avenue or Euphoria. #mswl

#MSWL Contemporary psychological suspense within a tight group of friends or community w/ secrets and high personal stakes.

#MSWL 1900s historical with strong female protag immersed into a specific, real community—i.e. science, arts, etc—but not war-centric.

Looking for tense domestic suspense where the reader thinks “damn, that could totally happen to me” and then freaks out a little. #MSWL
