Last weekend's Saturday plans gave me a new #mswl request - a YA thriller set on Governors Island (or someplace similar) after dark!A contained situation where safety is visible but out of reach 👍🏻
A ton of similar-looking buildings (disorienting but many places to hide!) 👍🏻
oh my gosh who is going to write this for meeee (and Kate) #mswl

I'm about to close to queries, but before I do, I'd really love to see some heartfelt MG in my inbox, along with twisty psychological thrillers & smart horror. #mswl

I want a book that truly messes with your perception of reality. Not just a psychological thriller, but a truly, mind-bending, House of Leaves-type book that blasts away all previous notions of what a book can be #MSWLOooo ditto #mswl
