I want hooky adult commercial romance so, so much (THE HATING GAME, THE WEDDING DATE, etc.) If it’s body inclusive, even better! #MSWL

I want a gay thing about gay adults who are relatively well-adjusted and aren't dying, that is wistful, hopeful, fun. I realize history and present circumstance don't quite allow for that but it'd be nice. A MOONLIGHT that's all that meal, or GOD'S OWN COUNTRY: THE TOGETHER YEARSHell yes #MSWL

One of my weird obsessions is Wicked Tuna, a show about tuna fishermen. I’d love a novel about a career that is essentially a whole community lifestyle. See, eg. farming, fishing, etc. #MSWLThis could be especially interesting in YA, if a kid either wants to join the family business or break free from it... #MSWL

"It’s like suddenly, a kid’s able to start to comprehend the Holocaust, and that becomes the only story we give them."I don't want to decrease the number of Holocaust books. I want to increase the number of OTHER Jewish books we're giving children, both Jewish and not.
