Very specific here but I recently lost a wonderful desi witches book and so I NEED one in my life #MSWL

Intersectional stories that explore themes/ideas that we see in our daily lives—even better if humor can be used to help propel these things and make them feel less didactic #MSWL

Strong hooks! Make me NEED to read your book. #MSWL

I am personally tired of the Mean Girls thing. Girls need to see that is not only okay but it’s awesome to support each other. So I want strong girlsfriend groups and less girl on girl hate in MSs #MSWL (see Seton Girls to understand girlsfriend reference here ❤️)

I love enemies to lovers but the LI can’t just be a total asshole. They need to be someone who has redeeming qualities that we want to root for. #MSWL

Would LOVE to see more queer romance in my inbox 👀❤️ #MSWL

If I haven't already been clear, these are the kind of vibes I'm looking for in books! ❤️ #MSWL

I finally saw Turning Red and that is exactly the type of friendships I want to see in stories in ALL age groups! Please send them to me!! #MSWL

Happy #InternationalWomensDay to ALL women
And here’s a reminder I’m always on the lookout for fiercely feminist titles in my inbox! #MSWL
“The patriarchy isn’t going to smash itself.”

Interpret it however you want… #MSWL

Another one for #MSWL

#MSWL

This is brilliant and why I would love this story #MSWL

I've been wanting this for ages too!! Yes! So much yes! #MSWL

These vibes right here #MSWL

I would love a “The Last Wife” novel if she’s the last wife because she took care of things 🔪❤️ meaning luck has nothing to do with it #MSWL

* Stories that start with a character waking up – I say this over and over, but I still see it ALL the time. I promise you there is a better dropping in point for your story, just consider giving it a try. ❤️
...

* Have I mentioned I don’t want misogynistic stories? Because I really DO NOT want them!
* If your story deals with suicide, make sure you are using the proper language
...

* Books set in the 80s-90s unless there is a historical significance that anchors the book in these years. If you can pick up the plot and set it modern day, then likely you should
* Books with overtly religious themes
...

* Stories about men stalking and murdering women—unless a woman uses this knowledge to turn the tables and stalks and murders the men
* Fatphobic stories
* Stories where a marginalized character has to teach another character how not to be bigot
