FYI this #MSWL is evergreen, but now I'll take your adult versions, too 🙏🏼

Since my call for poisoned pastry shop stories has let to fantastic results, another #MSWL: please send me your adult/YA/crossover books starring a grownup Kristy Thomas from The Babysitters Club. You know, bossy, badass, wears baseball tees, detail-oriented, clearly queer...

On the flip side, I’m still waiting for my dark Adult or YA book about a poisoned pastry shop #MSWL

Relatedly, though it hardly needs saying, please send me your adult or YA romcoms starring Eliot-from-The-Magicians-esque Disaster Bi’s/Gays/Lesbians/+ #MSWL twitter.com/rebeccapodos/s…

As it was in 2019, so shall it be in 2020: somebody query me with a YA or NA about best friends as utterly fabulous and Eliot and Margo #MSWL

An evergreen #MSWL: send me the YA or NA romance novel version of Hayley Kiyoko's "What I Need," please and thanks

I truly adore royal romances as much as the next, but someone please send me a soapy, spite-filled YA contemporary version of The Other Boleyn Girl. Like, you want a Christmas prince/princess? You gotta fucking FIGHT for them. Possibly with your own sister #MSWL

I’m gonna need somebody to query me a YA Sci-fi set at an intergalactic royal court where everyone basically dresses in Guo Pei #MSWL

GASP #MSWL. Also this reminds me of when a telenovela star came into the Hollister where I worked in NM, and she was so gorgeous and glam that I slammed my hand in the cash drawer, but didn’t want to betray myself, so I rang her up as my crushed hand shook beneath the counter

For goodness sake, somebody PLEASE deliver my a plucky fun queer YA historical in the vein of Gentleman Jack #MSWL 🙏🏼

I've tumbled into a research hole about the Jewish-American Mafia, and...folks, this is so specific...but if anybody's sitting on an ownvoices YA set during the turn-of-the-20th-century and following a teen swept up by the Purple Gang, I'm your girl #MSWL

This seems an appropriate IF TRAGIC night to reassert that I am always, always hungry for a YA Broad City, because this friendship? Legendary 💜 #MSWL

I love every book on this list (WICKED LIKE A WILDFIRE! THE SUMMER OF JORDI PEREZ! GIRLS OF PAPER AND FIRE!) and it reinforced my desire for a YA with a poisonous pastry shop #MSWL

Happy Friday, I have very particular #MSWL's today—Twitter, please deliver 🙏🏼

1. I'd KILL for a San Junipero-ish YA: queer sci-fi with high emotional stakes and a sweet ending
2. Hear me out, a YA Red Tent (midwifery and ancient rituals of womanhood) set IN SPACE

#MSWL a YA romcom set on Christmas Eve, except the mc’s are Jews so the holiday is really only incidentally mentioned, and they probably confess their mutual affection in a McDonald’s parking lot

Currently nerding out over Erik Larson’s meticulously detailed account of the last days of the Lusitania in Dead Wake, having flashbacks to my childhood obsession with A Night to Remember...

Anybody writing a YA or MG set aboard a slowly sinking ship? #MSWL

Where’s my gritty YA reboot of HERSHEL AND THE HANUKKAH GOBLINS? #MSWL

I’ll say it again just in case: I’m still searching for my YA San Junipero 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 #MSWL

Doing a little light morning reading about ghosts and demons in Jewish folklore, which reminds me that I’d kill for a YA with a golem in it 🤔 #MSWL

#MSWL A YA novel based upon the teen years and friendship of @Apey and @milliedechirico, cowritten by @Apey and @milliedechirico
