"I want literary fiction that genre blends, commercial fiction that takes me somewhere unknown, and rom coms that make me laugh and swoon."

I would love a great rom-com. I loved No Hard Feelings, Ghosted, and The Lost City. Bridget Jones’s Diary is a forever favorite! I would also love commercial fiction in the vein of Daisy Jones & The Six.

Fantasy Romance: My forever favourite. I enjoy all the usual tropes, but I would LOVE to see an original hook or different take on the genre.

Horror: The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor are two of my favourite scary shows. I would love something in the same vein. I'm better with ghosts and monsters than I am gore.

One of my fave reads this summer: TELL ME EVERYTHING by @ErikaKrouse . The braiding of two investigations— one a groundbreaking Title IX case, the other into her own past (and her understanding of herself)— is spell-binding. This is the non-fiction I want for my list! #MSWL

To clarify: I am open to all genres aside from those I specified otherwise. :) these are just some of my favs.

Characters with a job we don’t frequently see in fiction. Especially if it’s one YOU as the author do know very well.

I’ve been really wanting to find a truly scary horror, but that isn’t supernatural. Scare the sh*t out of me with things that exist around me everyday. (I will also look at supernatural horror, this is just something I’ve been on the hunt for.)

Real life stakes!! If your book has stakes that feel like they could easily be happening right now to my neighbours, and yet you’ve still managed to infuse great tension throughout please send it to me!

I am really craving stories with more upmarket or literary voices—especially in a quieter story with a really unique or surprising premise.
