Swifties...please query me. I love Blondie. We could talk for hours and hours about her lyricism. If you have a novel that is an ounce inspired by Taylor Swift or any of her songs, I want it. #MSWL

"I'm interested in upmarket thrillers that use an engaging thriller premise to explore personal/social issues – THE ECHO WIFE and WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING are two of my all-time favourite books."

I’m in the process of updating my #MSWL profile, but in the meantime if anyone has a MG/YA graphic novel they’d like to query, I’d love to see more of those!!

Some tropes I love and feel like I can't get enough of:
-enemies to lovers
-mutual pining
-opposites attract (grumpy/sunshine; tall/short, etc.)

#MSWL

I am also here for the weird and unsettling fantasy #MSWL

I have been reading and loving this group of fantasy books and I want something that feels the same way these books do #MSWL

"Since I'm a major softie, please send me your sweet rom coms! I want emotional intelligence, tender ~steamy scenes~, and genuinely funny dialogue."

I also want a compulsive read like FOURTH WING and ACATOR, anything Margaret Owens-esque. #MSWL

If you have comps for THE TRAITOR'S KISS, VIOLET MADE OF THORNS, THE WINNER'S CURSE, hit me #MSWL

I am craving an epic, sweeping, witty YA romance #MSWL

But, as always, I'm very open to finding something I feel strongly about. Often what I end up extending an offer on is outside of what I was expecting. Which means no #MSWL will ever be a perfect representation of all that I want.

I'm open to Graphic Novels for all age groups.

I'm open again to science fiction and horror, though still being extra picky there. I like my horror to have social commentary.
