Day 20 of #25DaysofMSWL: I am obsessed with HILDA. So give me fun adventures with a fantasy twist in MG and MG GN. #MSWL

Day 8 of #25DaysofMSWL: I need more middle grade. #MSWL

#MSWL that I didn't even know I needed but now I am like STUDIO GHIBLI meets night lunch wagons in a Neil Gaiman-esque MG #25DaysofMSWL

#MSWL for picture books or even MG nonfiction #25DaysofMSWL

Day 1 of #25DaysofMSWL: I would love to see a YA or MG with roller derby. #MSWL

#mswl

I need more books about German history. #MSWL #YA #MG

#MSWL MG graphic novels. I absolutely adore Jen Wang.

MG Fantasies like ELLA ENCHANTED or ALANNA #MSWL

A MG that feels like OVER THE GARDEN WALL #MSWL

#MSWL immigrant stories across the board in PB, MG, YA.

#MSWL Thirteenth Year in an atmospheric MG.

#MSWL I want a middle grade that reminds me of Anne of Green Gables.

I'm looking for more MGs in the vein of J. Anderson Coats or Whitney Gardner #MSWL

I also really want an atmospheric magical realism book in MG or YA. #MSWL

A reminder that I really want a MG about being a child of an immigrant. Something from Crazy Rich Asians that hit home to me was this line (summarized for space):

"You may look Chinese and speak Chinese, but not here (head) or here (heart)." #MSWL

Each of them nailed their MG voice, and that is central to me. #MSWL

With MG Narrative Non-fiction, I am looking for biographies. Tell me the true story of someone whose story needs to be told. #MSWL

For YA and MG Historical Fiction, voice is key. World building is key. I am less interested in post 1950s historical , unless it is a history I don't know. #MSWL

So my list priorities are as follows:

-YA/MG Historical Fiction
-YA Fantasy
- YA Romance
-YA and MG Graphic Novels
-MG Narrative Non-fiction
-YA and MG Contemporary Fiction
