Smart, savvy, adult thrillers with a literary voice and crossover appeal. Some speculative aspect is fine. Think Tana French or Lauren Beukes. No cops. No sexual violence. Women, PoC, other marginalized folk would be ideal. #MSWL

I love the idea of #MSWL day but I'm rarely looking for a very specific concept or type of book. I just want the book to be yours and yours alone. To be so specific you can see the whole world in its details. That said, here are a few things that are very top of mind for me:

Contemporary horror/thriller focused on the experiences of POCs. We live harrowing lives and ones that see the world from a different angle. Film/tv has done a great job of catching up to representing those experiences. I want more of it in books. #MSWL

Adult Epic Fantasy. Sweeping scope. Multi-POV. But PLEASE be about something other than just "let's murder everyone for empire." #MSWL

Replying to @dongwon

A Lauren Beukes-style sfnal thriller. Tana French with actual spooky shit. Ex Machina in book form. #MSWL
