Realizing my #MSWL tweets are very stream of consciousness today, which coincidentally is something I'd like in #MG or #YA if done well.

I'd love a really funny & poignant #MG with POC main protags. I guess a MG version of Dope is what I'm asking for here. #YA, too tho. #MSWL

I would love a #YA that plays with a format like Ifemelu's storyline in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's incredible novel, Americanah. #MSWL

I'd love a #YA that treated a human/earth issue like @OITNB handles the problems and nuances of incarceration. Idk exactly what tho. #MSWL

How about a #MSWL #YA about a foreign exchange experience? Either going to another country, or adopting a new person into your home?

Could I get a #YA loosely based on Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, but for some reunion a teen would be anxious about? #MSWL

#MSWL a #YA that makes me feel kind of bad for laughing my butt off--a book that I mentally don't want to think is funny, but can't help it.
