I’m looking for books that are big on: imagination, escapism, other-worldiness, nerdy inspiration, high emotional stakes. #MSWL

Smartly written diverse YA of all kinds (contemporary, fantasy, historical), adult historical featuring women who defy norms #MSWL

#mswl Would love a dual-twin/triplet story a la THIS IS US in any genre I represent

Non-fiction featuring innovative thinking about how we live our lives and on creativity #MSWL

Retellings (adult or YA) that are whip smart and full of complex, rich characters (think Jane Steele), YA verse novels #MSWL

I'm also looking for parenting books, by parenting experts, that address diversity & unconscious bias #MSWL #diversebooks

To get to know my taste better read my clients & follow me on @instagram where I post everything I read: instagram.com/carlywatters #MSWL

#MSWL I'd like to see more personal empowerment, self-improvement nonfiction. I'm inspired by @JenSincero You are a Badass

Non-fiction featuring strong women or topics from authors with stand out platforms, book club fiction for an adult audience #MSWL

Narrative nonfiction a la #HiddenFigures telling stories about erased contributions of POC's and women - there are so many #MSWL

#MSWL MG/YA fiction high-conceptl but w/fully-dimensional characters, ie intersection of literary/commercial. Twisty plots no horror or SF

#mswl WF abt a wmn just entering motherhood, exploring the change in life more in-depth than typical nanny-diary type stories

Smart YA romance (think Stephanie Perkins), voicey contemp YA, immersive YA fantasy that feels like something new (think Wintersong) #MSWL

Seeking inspirational romantic suspense 55k wds. Starts with danger and keeps H/h on their toes the whole book. #MSWL
