I love books with a great Oh Shit moment, and I'm not afraid of grit and gore. Really, a person can only feel so bad about the things they do to fictional characters. #MSWL

More than anything else, I want a book to make me feel something. I'm up for all kinds of characters and stories, but it's more important that I'm swept into their story. Scare me! Make me laugh! Make me stay up late turning pages. #MSWL

#MSWL Lately I seem to be watching a lot of TV centered on brothers (Prison Break, Mayans M.C., Supernatural, etc.) so I would love to see a brothers book. Or a bromance. I like sister books, too. I have two of them. (Sisters, not books.)

Romance please 😊❤️

For #MSWL day, here's my current list: I am always looking for high-concept commercial fiction for MG, YA, adult. Favorite genres are horror, mystery, suspense, thriller, and contemporary.

I love #MG and #YA stories with witty banter/mother-daughter relationships/quirky towns in the same vein as Gilmore Girls! #MSWL

Want to see more #YA protagonists with unique passions/hobbies, ala With the Fire On High. #MSWL

I am still searching for a time travel/Outlander inspired #YA! #MSWL

Would like to find more #contemporary coming-of-age #MG stories. #MSWL

Looking for more voice-driven #contemporary #YA. #MSWL

A darker fantasy (upper MG/YA and standalone or series) that feels reminiscent of Philip Pullman’s HIS DARK MATERIALS or Jim Henson’s THE DARK CRYSTAL. #MSWL

I want to find more #picturebooks with classic illustrations and timeless themes! I especially have a soft spot for stories featuring siblings, intergenerational relationships, and friends. #MSWL

Still looking for a #friendship #YA ala The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants or The Deepest Roots. #MSWL

Looking for more high concept #YA #fantasy with lush world building and a hook that I haven’t seen before! #MSWL

Agents! Still looking for a #historical #YA or #MG with or without #magic. #MSWL

Would love to find a fun #MG magical adventure. Think #EllaEnchanted for a new generation. #MSWL

Agents! I’d love to acquire a cozy #YA rom-com set during the autumn season. #MSWL

PLEASE 🙏🏽 #mswl

HISTORICAL in YA and Adult! Love some court/palace intrigue, especially if in a more unknown place in literature. (SEE TWEET ATTACHED FOR INFO!) I’m also always looking for my super feminist/independent US historical a la Ruby from Cold Mountain. #MSWL twitter.com/litagentkelly/…

I am literally copying and pasting this from my Pub Marketplace profile BUT I was born and raised in Southern California in a multi-cultural, blended family, so I have a soft spot for books that shine a spotlight on the nuances of family relationships and identity. #MSWL
