Re: period & puberty discourse from #TurningRed, I'm actively looking for middle grade novels that addresses these topics! Give me all the earnest (slightly cringe but still funny) coming of age MGs that grapple with these 'taboo' issues or just include them! #amquerying #mswl

“Stories featuring morally ambiguous protagonists! Give me your liars, your thieves. Your unlikeable peeps! I do NOT like reading about perpetually happy characters who spend their lives being good and moral (snooze).” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

And is there something around Día de Muertos and God/faith that would make for a good kids book? #MSWL

Random #MSWL... a kids book about Mardi Gras and its connection to Lent/preparing for Lent.
