this is maybe a little specific but i'd really love to find some historical fiction or nonfiction about the AIDS epidemic and the activism / community care / political radicalism that organized around it/as a result of it #mswl

finding 'ohana is sO delightful, and if anyone has a middle grade exactly like it (fish out of water! treasure hunt! reconnecting to your heritage! making friends! grandparent relationships! annoying siblings stuck on an adventure!) i would love love love to see it #mswl

Thanks to @alyzaliu I'm now obsessed with #TheRomanceofTigerandRose. I'd love to see more of this type of lighthearted romcom but with a unique historical and/or fantasy premise!!! #MSWL pic.twitter.com/Lc4wDb8FqoYES! yes yes yes add this to my #mswl too ✨
this show is literally the only thing that brightens my day and it is so funny and smart and swoony 🥰

kinda weird that scooby doo didn’t get the riverdale treatment before riverdale. every plot on that show would make more sense for a live action scooby doo teen drama.if you gave me a Dark and Edgy YA contemporary about a group of friends solving mysteries with their dog and their van i’m not not going to enjoy it #mswl

i think a lot (like a LOT) about the wasted potential of this relationship, so if anyone has any angsty generals/princes on opposing sides of a war dynamics, i would ❤️ to see it! #MSWL

Listen, I just need more queer princes in YA.Where is my soft prince falling for his bodyguard? Where is my tough take no shit political prince that falls in love with the wrong diplomat just before his parent(s) declares war?
More queer princes in YA 2Kforever
this is very #MSWL!
Editor
i can’t believe i forgot to say—in these most autumnal of falls, i’d love to acquire a #middlegrade or #graphicnovel with strong “over the garden wall” vibes 💀🍁🌕
Editor
a few very Specific #MSWL items i’m actively looking for:
- YA superstore
- an #ownvoices PB about sacheen littlefeather
- YA set in catholic/boarding/private school—bonus points for murder 💀
