Just binged Maxton Hall on Amazon & it is literally everything I love in YA enemies to lovers. Class disparity, broken characters. Messy lives. Academic/boarding school vibe. Strong secondary characters. YA to NA vibe. This is a #MSWL . Closing soon but give me 👀 if you have it.

“I’m always looking for more psychological horror, especially anything featuring haunted houses. Think JUST LIKE HOME by Sarah Gailey, THE SEPTEMBER HOUSE by Carissa Orlando, or MEXICAN GOTHIC by Silvia Moreno-Garcia.”

I listen to a lot of wildlife and conservationist podcasts, would love to represent something nonfiction for adults or children in this space. Unique viewpoint, or some specificity, thinking National Park After Dark, Tooth and Claw, Jasmin Graham, etc..... #mswl - is this my first on blsky?

I have got SUCH A NEED for fantasy with archaeological, paleontological, or anthropological elements at the minute, bonus if it's got a historical/Victorian and academic aesthetic similar to Emily Wilde #mswl

Before I close on May 9, if you have an adult, YA or MG that is grounded in reality but has a magical or fantasy component, you should send me that. Romance in YA or Adult preferred, but not required. #MSWL

(4) all the Donner Party vibes. a gritty survival story that you can’t look away from. I’m watching Yellowjackets right now and am absolutely hooked.

(3) YA dystopia - it’s time for the revival. incredibly high stakes, lots of action, multifaceted characters, maybe even a love triangle….?

(2) you already know I’m obsessed with Erin Hunter’s Warriors. please please please give me the next big animal series that can spawn a years long saga that’s really engaging for fans! maybe with an unexpected species? we have lots of 🐈‍⬛🐁🐇🐉s already… but I do love them

some absolute dream projects:
(1) something extremely atmospheric that captures The Real Florida (or a region you’re passionate about!) - I love when the setting of a story could almost be a character of its own

I’m looking for ALL genres of MG and YA, but might be slightly prioritizing….
- MG magical realism
- MG animal fantasy
- YA fantasy/sci-fi (DYSTOPIA)
- YA contemporary
- YA thriller
- historical fiction OR alternate history in both age groups
