#MSWL YA or MG with an magical atmospheric setting that almost is like a character

So to remind you all, a #MSWL for me, maybe in #MG with a balance to it, I would love a book that tackles poverty or homelessness.

#MSWL this gonna be weird but is anyone working on a narrative NF book about poisons that weren't used for poisons? Like the poison dresses?

I have a weird fascination those time of things. #mg #ya only

So it's 2020 and I need more books so #MSWL pic.twitter.com/ZjqixMORcp

These 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

Courtesy of the BookEnds' Slack and @BookEndsJessica putting it in my end, I now need a #MSWL for a Gay MG Parent Trap style book.

And also kid entrepreneurs. Possibly underground sparkly slime business. Or a homecoming mum shop.

#MSWL Cozy Magic MG. Think bookshops. Plant shops. Sweaters, and hot chocolate and blankets feeling inducing.

Quick reminder for #MSWL peeps: I only do Kidlit. So YA, MG, PB, or GN in MG or YA.

Celebrity crush culture. And all the cyber stalking that implies. #MG or #YA #MSWL

(And yes, I have been crushing on Aaron as a result of the Moulin Rouge soundtrack, thank you for asking)

#MSWL mermaids. But like, Thirteenth Year mermaids. And atmospheric mermaid lore. Can be YA or MG. But it is probably quiet, and emotionally fraught.

Last one before i run is inspired by my new RBG socks "Dawn of Justice". I remember being a student mediator. I would love to see a MG about a kid who doles out the justice of the streets without using violence, and instead their words and their mind. #MSWL

One of my friends only discovered his love of drag after college and it made me wonder what if. And he always loved make-up (he did the theater make-up since he was an actor) What would this MG look like? Please show me. #MSWL

I really love the Descendants so I would love to see a MG about a kid that deals with growing out of the family shadow. #MSWL

So it would have to be paired with a plot A that is hella cool but I would love to see a book that deals with parent that is absentee, or infrequent in a kid's life. That does a number on people (personal experience) and I think having a book showcase that is important. #MSWL
