Like, she KNEW men can lie and say trust me, and then be angry at you when you do what you need to do to make sure the man you're with is not a monster.And she's always cast as the jealous sister, and Psyche as faithless.
And written that way by men.
THIS! I loved Psyche and Cupid as a kid. But yes. Like her sisters are always like "Girl, you haven't seen your husband in the light, HOW do you know??"
And yet, it is framed like they are the bad guys.
Give me a #MSWL that addresses this in a modern way.

So it's 2020 and I need more books so #MSWL pic.twitter.com/ZjqixMORcpThese are some of my top needs (from the graphic):
-MG and YA graphic novels
-Mermaids. *I know what I want so I will know when I see it*
-Elegant Horror. (what does this mean, Natascha? Think THE GRACE YEAR, THE HAZELWOOD, WILDER GIRLS) #MSWL

Watching one of my favorite movies: THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO. This tale of revenge is my fave. #MSWL

Your new comps are your favorite childhood movie + the last book you read. Mine is NEVERENDING STORIES meets SORCERY OF THORNS. I’d read it!THE LITTLE MERMAID meets DON'T DATE ROSA SANTOS.
Welp that is a total #MSWL

I want, as @LauraTNamey just called it, "elegant horror". #MSWL
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · 2 Dec 2019
BUT I did love DON'T DATE ROSA SANTOS and would love to find more books in @Nina_Writes and @LauraTNamey wheelhouse. I want an author in their squad if I was to form an author squad for them. (this will make no sense to anyone but me). #MSWL

Serpent & Dove is an honorable mention for the #MSWL for the genre mash-up. What I think is unique here is that there were alot of romance genre tropes and beats. I would love to see that approach done again.

A TREASON OF THORNS was so atmospheric. I just loved the ambiance of that book. #MSWL
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · 2 Dec 2019
I loved the grounded fantasy of THE MERCIFUL CROW. It dealt with alot of issues, and had alot of themes working for it. #MSWL
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · 2 Dec 2019
I would love a dystopian that is smart and 2019 like THE GRACE YEAR. #MSWL
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · 2 Dec 2019
Writing wise, I feel like THE GRACE YEAR, THE MERCILESS CROW, and A TREASON OF THORNS definitely captured the style I love the best. So writing #MSWL there.
