i’m still digging my way out from under a pile of submissions (sorry agents!!!) but there’s always room on my #MSWL for:
- unapologetically self-indulgent, diverse #YA
- YA historical fiction, mystery, & fantasy
- YA contemporary, either dark & spine-tingly or warm & lighthearted

i feel like maybe i’ve said this before, but i’d really like to read a middle grade in the vein of bob’s burgers—lighthearted & full of shenanigans, and ultimately about growing up in a close-knit working class family #mswl

my first time watching fullmetal alchemist is going really well! pic.twitter.com/CLebThNdJZ

now that i’m officially done with FMA:B i just want to say that at the tippy-top of my #mswl are lawful neutral female characters like general olivier armstrong and postcolonial SFF that breaks my heart and puts it back together again

i just started playing detention & it's a truly chilling game
not the least because the white terror extended forty years and killed nearly 4000 people

i definitely want to read a nuanced, well-researched YA set during taiwanese martial law someday #MSWL

my current #mswl vibe is an aggressively weird, lovecraftian (but not racist & aware of & subverting the imperial potential of horror & sci-fi), dieselpunk novel set in like an alternate-universe metropolis à la fallen london & sunless sea
