Always very down for unique fairytale/fable retellings that feel lush and sweeping and maybe a little (a lot) sexy. #MSWL

I was a middle grade girl who loved baseball, so I'd love a middle grade abt a girl who loves baseball. & dogs.& NSYNC. (Too specific?)#MSWL

Always looking for a YA with a smart, unique structure, a la 500 Days of Summer, The Last Five Years, or The Lover’s Dictionary #MSWL

#MSWL a YA--historical or contemp--with a setting that's a character in its own right & a twist of something darkly magical/darkly strange

#MSWL A YA like Jane the Virgin in that it follows a tight-knit multi generational family, diverse cast of characters, warm & full of heart
