#MSWL CONT:
-stories that play with form & storytelling
-quiet magic/strangeness
-retelling genre mashups (eg. The Girls at the Kingfisher Club, Warm Bodies, Hadestown)
-stories where food plays a major role
-all the feels (take me on an emotional rollercoaster)

Clever takes on familiar plots/tropes or fresh retellings that completely subvert expectations.

Forever and always, more retellings of lesser known mythology, fairy tales, and classical lit. Especially if it blends with an unexpected genre. #MSWL

I still really want a retelling of Persuasion. #MSWL

(This is my sneaky way of getting more people to read this under appreciated classic and getting on the Wentworth ship 😉)

8) I still have my fingers crossed for a clever retelling, a genre-crossing tale with familiar faces, but not unnecessarily faithful to the source material. It should stand independent and quite unique. #MSWL

Still on the hunt for a really original novel/opera/ballet/myth retelling. #mswl

This is *very* specific, but I'd love to see a #YA retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche. It's my favorite. #MSWL

#MSWL Would love #YA #SFF or #CON retellings of classic lit, that put a new angle on old favorites.

#MSWL I would LOVE to see #YA retellings of classic ballets and operas (Coppelia is a favorite of mine): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copp%C3%A…
