Just finished The Idea of You by @robinnelee and cannot stop thinking about it. A delicious romance and perfect second-act story. I need more unputdownable, sophisticated romances like this in my life. If you've written one, send it my way #mswl

I cannot get enough of @AlixEHarrow's The Once and Future Witches. It's not only the perfect October read because witches, but such an amazing and empowering and insightful book about women and female power and sisterhood. Would love to see subs like this. #amreading #MSWL

I watched The Lake House with my fave #KeanuReeves over the weekend and it made me long for a modern genre-bending time travel romance. Send me yours, please. I'm thinking anything along the lines of #TheLakeHouse and also #PalmSprings with Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti #mswl

I'd also love to see a new take on Beaches (you know, the Bette Midler-Barbara Hershey movie), which I just re-watched - I'm really all over this best friends thing #MSWL

A weekend reading series I attended reminded me of another #MSWL: adult best friend stories. Those relationships run so deep so what happens when they fall apart? Send me your friendships gone awry stories!

My summer #mswl: mothers with secret lives; Midwest stories with a strong sense of place; character driven mysteries and thrillers (maybe starring mothers with secret lives); fish out of water narratives, both serious and funny (maybe with something Polish).

I'd love to see a novel featuring Sara Paulson's character from Ocean's 8 - a mom with a secret or secret life, with a perfect mix of humor and heart. #MSWL
