I am begging, begging, for books with this dark, luscious, witchy vibe. #MSWL

These are just a few specifics, but Iβm open to any sff! I love grand world-building and multiple POVs. Anything with the feel of a Robin Hobb novel or THE BLACK COAST. I canβt wait to get reading! #MSWL
Editor
I want political intrigue! THE GOBLIN EMPEROR is my favourite novel of all time and Iβm chasing something that will sweep me away into a strange world of courtly intrigue and political machinations. Fast-paced plotting like THE TETHERED MAGE, send it my way! #MSWL
Editor
Multiverses and space opera! I love expansive worlds with a close knit cast of characters, like NOPHEK GLOSS. I love the strange and alien, horror in space, and found family tropes. Another recent favourite of mine was THE SPACE BETWEEN WORLDS. #MSWL
Editor
Horror! Folk horror with a creeping sense of atmosphere like THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS and THE TWISTED ONES. Iβm fascinated by cults and spooky goings-on and literally anything with a witch. I would love to see some non-Western horror in the style of HIS HOUSE. #MSWL
Editor
Dark academia in the vein of NINTH HOUSE and PLAIN BAD HEROINES. Give me dusty tomes, ancient libraries, snarky heroes and anything featuring alchemy. Iβm a sucker for some alchemical magic. #MSWL
Editor
Romance. All the romance. Gothic, LGBTQIA+, romance in space (hello, WINTERβS ORBIT), unrequited love, erotic kneeling, enemies to lovers. I love ALL THE TROPES. Iβd especially love to see some disaster bisexuals in any setting, just being disastrous. #MSWL
Editor
Send me your non-Western epic fantasies like THE UNBROKEN and THE JASMINE THRONE. Iβm particularly after Islamic and Middle Eastern fantasy that reminds me of home and I have a soft spot for tales featuring djinn. #MSWL
