Felice Laverne

She’d also love to find ms that speak to the unspoken or largely undiscussed facets of motherhood, like The Push & those that feature speculative fiction settings where people may live and love whomever they please like Hanya Yanagihara’s To Paradise. #writingcommunity /6 end 🧵

Witty & satirical upmarket women’s fiction that reveals a nasty side to a major industry (i.e. fashion, film, etc.) as in The Other Black Girl or The Devil Wears Prada. #writingcommunity /5

Novels featuring multicultural Millennials and Gen Zers in high-powered workplace situations; sharp social commentary on social media and digitalization (The Circle and The Every); dystopia #writingcommunity /4

Literary fiction written around characters of color (The Emperor of Ocean Park, A Little Life); contemporary Southern Gothic fiction (Pew); Gothic Magical Realism (Sorrowland); #writingcommunity /3

Felice has a soft spot for brainy novels set on college campuses (The Secret History, Loner); dark, moody Southern atmospheres like in Sharp Objects; clever ‘whodunits’ set on estates (The 7 ½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, Knives Out) #WritingCommunity /2
