I also love speculative elements that run the gamut from DRY to STRANGER THINGS. Ultimately, I like stories grounded in our reality, no matter a spec element. #MSWL

Also, CHICKENS. I am dying for that chicken picture book. I’ll know it when I read it, I think. #MSWL

Clearly I love animal protagonists, but humans welcome, too 😂 #MSWL As a rule, not one for appliances or food as the main character. It’s just not for me.

I’m looking for picture books like Elise Parsley, Tammi Sauer and Ryan T Higgins. I prefer humorous, silly or witty picture books. Things kids (okay I) can read over and over again and still laugh. #MSWL

I’ve been meaning to post some #MSWL’s for going into 2019, and thought the best way to do that is with my top 10 reads from this year.

YES, PLEASE.

Also, #MSWL.

I want a murder husbands novel. @metakate is to blame. #MSWL #WishlistWednesday

This, in realistic (or realistic with a twist) YA/MG! Also, repeating #mswl for murky "would you really make the right choice?" stories a la Passengers

I love the picture @CarinaPress used for this!! #mswl #acquiring

#MSWL: YA Contemporaries with a bit of mystery and a twist

Thinking of sending me your picture book biography? I prefer unconventional narratives with lots of illustration potential. 😊

A query just made me laugh out loud. FULL REQUEST.

In 2019, I want more hilarious books!

#mswl

Day 12 of #25DaysofMSWL: I want graphic novels. Recent favorites have been THE PRINCE AND THE DRESSMAKER, ESTRANGED, THE WITCH BOY. I also loved NIMONA. #MSWL

Things I’d love to find in my submissions folder in 2019: a (YA, I think?) graphic novel-style biography of Selena by a Latinx author or author-illustrator. #MSWL ew.com/tv/2018/12/11/…

Drooling over some recent deal announcements over here at @bookendslit Congratulations to all authors, agents and editors. I would love to see more fiction with dogs, especially suspense/mystery/thriller #amquerying #MSWL

“Epic fantasy that's truly ambitious, with a complex world and secrets around every corner” @kurestinarmada #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

So usually this time of year I am all about the holiday movies. But for some reason all I want to do right now is rewatch The Haunting of Hill House over and over. Give me all of the spooky, thanks.

#MSWL PSA: I am NOT the match for a soapy, murder-mystery, contemporary YA. My best friend was murdered and I find these stories highly triggering. However, if you were to look at violence against women in a careful, nuanced and informed way, I could be your perfect match.

I love a good revenge story. Especially ones where girls get revenge. If you have a YA revenge story, please send it my way. #MSWL
