Uhhhhh this is a great idea. I second this. #MSWL

#mswl YA contemp that perfectly captures a specific place, ideally w/ a big dose of weird. Something like Alison Umminger's AMERICAN GIRLS.

I'm tired of broody or aggressive love interests. Give me a LI who is a huge loser puppy like Alistair in Dragon Age: Origins. #MSWL

#MSWL YA with characters who cannot afford to go to college. What else are they planning for the future?

#MSWL I'd love for The Chosen trope to be turned on its head. The protag has all the classic makings of The One but turns out they're not

I'm picky about historical. I feel like I've seen enough WWII for the rest of my life. But I did <3 Code Name Verity. So no camps. #MSWL

(NOTHING is as fraught w/ disorder, emotion, magical thinking as a long-running homeschool group! I can say that - was in one K-12! #MSWL)

#MSWL A YA or Adult novel set in Renaissance Italy.

#MSWL YA with a film noir feel. Give me a teenage Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall.

Getting more specific on #MSWL: I'm a huge foodie/cook & would love a YA involving food or cooking competitions in some way.

#mswl I will forever want magical realism in MG, YA & women's fiction. Bonus if the magic is strongly rooted in a specific culture or place.

#MSWL: Closed community tensions/bonds like boarding school, summer camp, island, cult; would love to see you do the same for homeschool!

Fiction set in Russia, pre- or post-Communism, not spy fic. Like Madonnas of Leningrad, City of Thieves, Russian Winter #MSWL

#MSWL I'd LOVE a really funny MG. Any genre.

Also always looking for SFF stories that address important real-world topics/themes in thoughtful ways a la Ursula LeGuin, #MSWL

#mswl Page-turning literary fiction w/ LBTQ MCs, abt more than coming out/being closeted. Think Sarah Waters' novels or Ariel Scrag's ADAM.

Indeed we would! #MSWL

I don't do historical pre-1890s. But I did dearly love Song of Achilles, so there you go. Story trumps all. #mswl

WF or mystery with a South Asian locale or characters, like Sacred Games, Island of A Thousand Mirrors, White Tiger, Good Indian Wife #MSWL

#MSWL: I'd also <3 vibrant historical fiction like THE LIGHT BETWEEN THE OCEANS or Beatriz Williams (but no WW2 please! I have WW2 fatigue)
