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 ❤️)

Normalize girls taking each other out on dates. Like they don’t necessarily need to be romantic, just let us show each other how a nice date should feel and collectively raise the bar. Picture calling your college bestie like “dress fancy, I’m picking you up at 7:00 for dinner.”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

Honestly it's like incredible how much there is to unpack in every line of this tweet but mostly I'm now obsessed the with wanting the horror novel "if you're lucky, you are the last wife" is begging to become pic.twitter.com/b5UwbgTd5AI 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

* 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
