This is also one thing I *LOVE* about CJ Cherryh's Foreigner series. #MSWL

#MSWL I would love a political fantasy or SF novel that pays as much attention to the symbolic meaning of clothing, gestures, and etiquette as the Queen of England does her brooches, and the plot hinges on this. The Goblin Emperor meets Ancillary Sword, I suppose?

I'd also love to see a new take on Beaches (you know, the Bette Midler-Barbara Hershey movie), which I just re-watched - I'm really all over this best friends thing #MSWL

yes yes yes yes yes. #MSWL

If somebody wanted to write an Utena-style pseudo-contemporary diverse fantasy with sword-fighting, butch and femme queer girls, and colorful, floral imagery, and then have their agent sub it to me, I wouldn't be upset. I'm just sayin'. #MSWL

As always, I'm thirsty for a cocktail book. Every time I see a new deal for one I get a little sad. Cocktails with fun themes? For women? Stories about drinking? What's your twist? (see what I did there?) #MSWL

I want women's fiction with a strong romantic thread. Former romance authors maybe? #RWA19 #MSWL

I feel like I've been seeing so many dark books lately that I would like something lighter. Not chick lit light, but Other People's Houses or Crazy Rich Asians light. #mswl

I want books set in other countries that teach me about the culture, from more serious women's fiction #WF to fun fiction like Crazy Rich Asians. I LOVE learning about other worlds and cultures. #mswl

It's not lost on me that some of my top books of the year are #ownvoices Inspiring me to write up an #MSWL calling for more #ownvoices in my Query inbox: QueryMe.Online/Jessica_Faust

"#YA involving fringe science in a contemporary setting." @msmariavicente #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation/

Still looking for these in my inbox. Send 'em along if you got 'em! #mswl

Same here! Adult or YA. #MSWL

I love settings that seem normal at first and then get really not normal as the book unfolds. #MSWL #WishListWednesday

I just came across a YA book coming out that used Pan's Labyrinth as a comp. I LOVE that movie and Guillermo del Toro's work in general. Writers, if you use any of his films as comps and I am so in! Delightfully dark, beautiful visuals and fantastical! #MSWL

Where's my 1980s-era Satanic Panic novel? #mswl

A weekend reading series I attended reminded me of another #MSWL: adult best friend stories. Those relationships run so deep so what happens when they fall apart? Send me your friendships gone awry stories!

Craving a Heathers-esque dark comedy with psychologically complex characters by an #ownvoices creator. #MSWL #YA

A Lizzie Magie picture book would be cool! I had no idea who she was until about thirty seconds ago. #MSWL
