I think of The Yellow Wallpaper endlessly, all the time. A horror novel or Women’s Fiction adaptation/play of this short story would slay me. #mswl

I want more fantasy where the stakes are not the entire world, but just, like, this one street corner or house. One friendship. You don't have the shake the pillars of the earth to get my attention.Personal character stakes are my JAM and what I die for in books. Forever #mswl

Just look at these two! This scene broke me, completely. pic.twitter.com/vnuSuoIk8VSeriously y’all I’m a romantic and I know I rant and rave about thrillers and horrors on here. But I’m absolute shit at dating and the only romance I’m getting is in books. So send me happy queer ones, please! #mswl

I would cry if I got a YA or Adult romance f/f that felt like @claudmp3’s music. Writers, please help me out and send me this book! #mswl

Hear me out, more slice of life books but like... scifi and fantasy. Spaceship families foraging in different systems to start a multi-planet inspired garden or an orc couple struggling to make peace with the one mean cow on their farm.YES #mswl 😍👇🏽

The way RULES FOR VANISHING executes horror!!! Absolutely terrifying, creepy, and DELICIOUS!!!Haunted by this book. I love creepy town legends, games kids play that are rooted in scary stories! #mswl

Make my agent DREAMS and give me a Freaks and Geeks/Empire Records YA. The “fuck ups,” “grungy,” attitude-heavy kids #mswl

You ever notice they only killed the genuinely all-around nice kids in Skins? Why did Grace have to die when Matty’s lame ass was right there??Aren’t these dorks just the cutest? Hardcore #mswl for a Rich and Grace pairing!

And another #mswl in the thriller space: I am horribly obsessed with true crime about cults, and family secrets that lead to deadly outcomes, and wild stuff like this. In Adult, especially, and in YA!Adding to the #mswl because I think I botched a previous ask in this thread! I LOVE small town stories, (ESPECIALLY Adult romance!!) I just want them diverse and from a different voice! I also think of suburbs and small towns as completely different settings, sorry for confusion!

BEFOREE I FORGET: GIVE ME THE F/F WUTHERING HEIGHTS YOU COWARDS!!! #mswl

Patrice Caldwell @whimsicallyours
Whereas I love the suburbs (& small towns) so send to me. Maybe cause I grew up in the south in suburbs + country, but SO MUCH goes down in the suburbs and small towns.Yes, I'm trash for stuff like Big Little Lies.
YA + Adult #mswl twitter.com/kianangu/statu…
Do not get me wrong, y’all, I LOVE small town stories as I’m from a poor one in upstate NY (Binghamton). Def send me those! #mswl

Kelly Quindlen @kellyquindlen
@kianangu I’ll do my best because you ABSOLUTELY need that manuscript!! Like. Give us a clumsy, awkward black girl trying to flirt with another girl for the first time, à la Booksmart. PLEASE.Kelly’s firgured out exactly the right wording for WHAT I AM DESPERATELY LOOKING FOR IN YA #mswl 👇🏽
Kiki Nguyen @kianangu · 24 Sep 2019
Also, for the love of everything that’s holy, do not send me interracial friendship/romance narratives that overcome racism. That shit is played out and wack. Stories with characters and worlds navigating racism, homophobia, etc yes. The Help type shit? NO. Anti #mswl
Kiki Nguyen @kianangu · 24 Sep 2019
Before I forget! I love historical romance, historical fantasies, alternate historical fantasies etc etc in YA and Adult. I’d LOVE an f/f in a period story! Like duchess debauchery or some shit. With WOC!!! Bc racism is a recent phenomenon. #mswl
