I want a mystery that characters wish they hadn't solved. A mystery that isn't about the mystery, really, at all, but about the people--the kind of ending that feels inevitable, like putting these people in that room at once--well, nothing else could have happened.

give me Heathcliff, give me the lover that has so misunderstood what love is that they perform deeds that leave them bloody. Give me a love that has soured and make me yearn for it anyways. I want more hauntings, more ghost stories.

Give me Practical Magic, I'm begging you.

entirely missed #mswl day--but in truth every day is MSWL day! I'm yearning for smart, irreverent fiction with true heart that dives into more than one voice: always dreaming of PORTRAIT OF A THIEF (@gracedli 👀) and THE BANDIT QUEENS. Give me a doomed, impossible love story...

My main goal this year is to build out my adult list, so I'm eagerly looking for more #mystery #suspense #thriller, book club and upmarket fiction! #MSWL

I know the latest season of YOU has been getting a lot of flack, but I'm unabashedly addicted. YOU has been a #MSWL stalwart for me, but I'm loving the Agatha Christie twist this time around... I'd love for something similar to land in my inbox... 👀🕵️‍♀️🔪🖋️

📚GROUNDED SPECULATIVE FICTION - Something set in our world, but with a fantastical element at its core. This could be a strange phenomenon, revolutionary technology, or cataclysmic event... (1/5)

"In adult fiction, I love interesting voices/POVs, dual timelines with a historical feel, rhythmic language, and anything that is both an engaging and accessible read, while being thought-provoking and layered at the same time."

#MSWL Thought a beat late for Thursday’s fest, how much would I love to see a thriller called THE SENSITIVITY READER? (And a long-married forty-something’s hijinks attempting an affair…while rediscovering just how much she/he/they love their spouse.)

Now that it's clear that he's okay, hyper specific #mswl item:
Picture book about Flaco the owl exploring Central Park/ New York at night

I LOVE rom coms. I just made an offer for one, but I just realize need more. More HFN, HEA. I love LOVE. #amagenting #MSWL

Seeking compelling historical fiction by underrepresented authors, particularly those with not-so-well known stories.
Seeking a new twist on a common trope. #MSWL

Deep sea horror/ cryptids will always be on my list though. If you have something like that query me at anytime #mswl
