Happy Wednesday! Horror is a HUGE want for my #MSWL when I reopen tomorrow. I am searching for smart, spooky, atmospheric stories in MG, YA, and adult.
I love relationships that grow stronger over time, so having a YA or MG story along the lines of Schittβs Creek would blow my mind!
Time for my Tuesday #MSWL focused on...contemporary. In YA and MG I am always searching for strong characters that fight to change the world. Give me a teen/group of teens staging a protest and making things happen with their voices. #amagenting
My Monday #MSWL feature is romance. In YA I am looking for rom coms. Give me a modern, YA twist of When Harry Met Sally any day with any pairing. #loveislove #amagenting
In one of the latest episode of THE CHI, Kevin and his friends sneak into what they think is a haunted building. I would love to see a YA mystery built around this scene in my inbox! #MSWL
#MSWL Iβm DESPERATELY NEEDING a YA or adult romance where a sweet couple falls in loveβno insta love. I want to see their journey, whether itβs f/f, m/m, f/m...love is love. I just want β€οΈ and laughter and kindness with lots of friends and family and community.
I am hungry for YA novels in verse in the same vein as POET X by @ElizabethC05172, LONG WAY DOWN by @JasonReynolds83, or SHOUT by @halseanderson. Give me your strong voices and lyrical prose. #MSWL
#MSWL I am actively looking for YA or MG horror novels that are campy and full of tropes.
#MSWL I'm dying to see a YA contemporary starring an all girl band in my inbox!!! Think of a mash up between SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL, SATISFACTION, with a dash of SHAMELESS.
