-More illustrators or author/illustrators, especially marginalized
-Poetic, lyrical PBs (but not rhyme) with lots of layers and heart
-Creepy, spooky ghost stories (Adult/New Adult)
-Gorgeous prose but highly commercial concepts across the board

I’m itching for more horror: gothic, eerie, paranormal. (Just not straight up gore) #mswl

Also, if any teachers follow me, I’d like to find some non-fiction education/pedagogy/teaching guide books.

Ooh! I’m also hoping to find books about curls or with curly haired characters. (Type 3 or 4) #MSWL
Personally , it took me until adulthood to love my hair bc:
1. I didn’t know how to care for it
2. People told me it looked better straightened
