#MSWL Books about other cultures. My immigrant-child self wants to feel connected to our global world right now and I want to see child of the world having fun and living their lives.

#MSWL I'd love someone like J. Anderson Coats or Gail Carson Levine or Sherwood Smith.

#MSWL In MG, I want something timeless, yet quirky in the writing. The voice has to be dead center middle grade for me.
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · Jan 22
#MSWL I really want a psychological read. I loved TRULY DEVIOUS, BEFORE I LET GO, THE FEMALE OF THE SPECIES, SEE ALL THE STARS. Something that keeps me working for that ending.
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · Jan 22
#MSWL I want more authors of color with great stories to tell, like EMBER IN THE ASHES.
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · Jan 22
#MSWL I love romance. Give me YA romance. Rom-coms, star-crossed lovers, slow burns, enemies to lovers. I want to be swept off my feet. Chemistry on the page is what I need to see.

#MSWL I would love something humorous and quintessentially teen like DERRY GIRLS.
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · Jan 22
#MSWL I would love to get a magical realism book. Something like SAWKILL GIRLS, or WICKED DEEP.
Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · Jan 22
Renewing my #MSWL for atmospheric reads, and magical realism.

Universe, I am hungry for books, so send me ALL THE BOOKS!**I may come to regret this when I get swamped in queries.
I will add, please remember that I only am looking for children's books. Check out bookendsliterary.com/submissions/ to find out what I rep. Search #MSWL and my handle for more specific ones.

In this small story, you see that when denunciation is done through social media, you can destroy people without even knowing them. There’s no personal connection that allows apology and forgiveness. nytimes.com/2019/01/14/opi…You know, I think I would be interested to see a sensitive, nuanced YA, (character and voice driven) that explores call-out culture. #MSWL

Please....if a POC #ownvoices author even writes a Mission Impossible-esqe heist novel involving people breaking into the British Museum to recover their stolen treasure, I will help you write a query letter and blurb your book and push it into people's hands.Natascha Morris @SoCalledYALife · 30 Dec 2018
I am dying for a commercial heartfelt picture books #MSWL

I need an MG that is like AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER. #MSWL
