YA true crime. Not sure what it would look like, but I want it. #MSWL

I want a YA that deals with weight in a real way. Body positivitiy, but also does acknowledge the feelings overweight girls get in this world. And I don't mind if it comes in a fantasy #MSWL

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

Seeing so much YA where the protag is Not Into Instagram, celeb gossip, etc. in a way that suggests she's too good/smart for it. It's a valid character choice, but it's also valid for young women to be into that stuff!This is why I need my Spice Girls YA. Celeb culture and gossip are so fascinating. #mswl

And finally my evergreen #MSWL right now: mermaids. Evil mermaids. Magical realism mermaids. 13th Year Mermaids.
And Ren Faire contemporary.
And Spice Girls friendship break-up MG or YA.

Also, talking to a teen last night about roller derby, and realized he was kind of intrigued by it. The ladies dominate this, but would love to see a YA about a teen ragtag roller derby group. #MSWL

I want a YA set in a small village. Not for nothing, my great aunt is the town gossip, and it cracks me up. Imagine trying to live your YA life in that. #MSWL

Naomi Davis loves to sing 🎵🎶🎵🎶 @NaomisLitPix
I really want a YA contemporary with a powerful female friendship. Like one of those fast, somewhat combustible friendships that takes 100% of you in the high school years and maybe cannot last forever but leaves that soul-deep mark... #mswlYes please #mswl
