#MSWL: SUPER thirsty for juicy, smart, book club fiction like ASK AGAIN YES, THE VANISHING HALF, SUCH A FUN AGE

YES elements: multi-generation, sibling stories, career-oriented women, sense of humor, reinterpreting classic or myth through an unsung character’s POV

Ooooh yes, please. #MSWL (Agented only, so definitely send to @sharongracepjs, and then if you get signed, ask for me to be on the sub list! 🙂)

Can y'all recommend any college-set rom coms or at least ones that aren't super angsty? Bonus points if it's queer!
