In speculative fiction (light sci-fi, horror, fantasy), I need worlds that I can settle into easily.
Fresh takes on classic tropes, dynamic characters, unique magic systems, atmospheric writing & undeniably high stakes ✨Think: R.F. Kuang, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Rory Power

I’d love to see more crime fiction! 🔪🖤
If it reads like a true crime doc or headline, I’m into it. 🚫 police, gov’t officials, detectives (past or present).
I also love speculative twists and psychological elements like Riley Sager, Vera Kurian, & Tiffany D. Jackson!
