Give me more historical fiction. Hidden histories! Some of my favorite of late have been @RutaSepetys's books and WOLF HOLLOW. #MSWL

Check out my past #MSWL for more specific plot points in case I miss anything.

I definitely need a strong psychological YA or thriller. Y'all know by know that Mindy McGinnis is my gold standard. #MSWL

I want well-rounded characters and strong character development. I want to be able to know they are real and to relate to them so well. I should know them better than they want to admit. #MSWL

I definitely need more contemporary YA, but I am looking for contemporary that is not the every day setting. Elevate it and allow me to escape for my every day. #MSWL

In both YA and MG, I need more fantasy. Fair warning: I will be picky. I am looking for lush worlds, complex characters, and writing that sweeps me away. #MSWL

So now that I am ready to re-open let's talk #MSWL and what I am looking for in manuscripts for the rest of 2018. Let's do this!

I am looking for writers that are in the vein of some of my absolute favorites. @kitfrick's writing is stunning. @lauraeweymouth's writing was so beautiful. Too many to tag, but I am looking for that literary beauty in a commercial hook feel. #MSWL

More straight up Muslim rom-coms for couples of all backgrounds and identities. Meet cutes, parents arranged but it actually works out, dramatic scenes in the rain, as close as you can get to a musical dance number on a page! #MuslimSquadWL

Kaye. Mostly Away. @gildedspine

Moody, 90s-esque YA with Muslim teens making questionable decisions, having high speed motorcycle chases (most of the men on my Desi side of the family have owned or rode one at some point) and having heady, heavy relationships. #MuslimSquadWL
