Dear world, please give unto me a YA novel with a @LeonoraCarring1 vibe #MSWL

· 30 Mar 2018

Friendly reminder that picture books, MG, or YA novels about Brasilian culture or protagonists are at the top of my #MSWL ! Very hype to hear that @fsgbooks is publishing O sol na Cabeça by Geovani Martins!

10/10 adding Baby Sea Ghost picture book to my #MSWL

· 8 Jan 2018

If we’re being honest, my truest #MSWL is anything that can be compared to @RealGDT . Give me dark fairytales that turn the world on its head, send me gothic romances that pulsate with life, mail me heartbreak and adventure wrapped up in the heart of a child!

Okay, folks! I’ve entered my Thirties and I am ready to acquire all of the books! Agents, if you’ve got any magical realism, dark humor, own voices, STEAM-based books, multicultural contemporary stories, or anything rooted in folklore, I’m your gal! #MSWL

But also can you imagine how AMAZING THAT BOOK WOULD BE (I need it to exist) twitter.com/jfriedhoff/sta…

Hello this book would definitely be top o’ the #MSWL

Just watched The Shape of Water and it just reiterated the fact that anything with the soul of a Guillermo Del Toro film is always at the top of my #MSWL.

nerd garbage pitches @NerdGarbageBot

I need you to picture if HP Lovecraft did a edutainment documentary, set on spaceships.

Um I am nerd garbage and this is #MSWL (but w a more inclusive, woke Lovecraft, pls)

I really want to read/acquire YA and MG featuring Brazilian and/or bicultural characters (I am a teensy bit biased). Cadê os meus brasileiros?!

All I want to do is watch Cartoon Saloon movies for the rest of my life. In fact, anything with the same heart as The Secret of Kells or Song of the Sea is my eternal #MSWL

Slightly eerie story about a girl with a raven friend/familiar is at the top of my #MSWL today because duh it’s my not-so-secret dream

Final #mswl for the night: if Joanna Newsom’s music could be distilled into a story.
