(In YA, think THE CHEERLEADERS or ACE OF SPADES. I KILLED ZOE SPANOS and THE AGATHAS are other favorites! Surprise me!)

Thrillers! I’m famously hard to surprise, so anything with a twist I don’t see coming is an auto “yes.” Ruth Ware, Riley Sager, Megan Abbott, and Lucy Foley are my go-tos, but I would love to read something that can put a fresh twist on the genre (think THE MAID or "Knives Out.")

I’ve been especially loving books with a genre twist lately -- PORTRAIT OF A THIEF comes to mind as a great example of what I’m looking for, as does COUNTERFEIT or LUCKY. I’m a sucker for a charming con artist, or an intricately plotted heist. Bonus if it makes me laugh!

Doing my 2023 #mswl wishlist early this year, because Twitter might implode at any second! Here’s a non-exhaustive list of what I’m looking for (in all age ranges!) for 2023:

Upmarket fiction! Anything with a big hook and accessible writing has my name all over it. Does it feel like something your book club would love? Send it my way! Recent faves include LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY, TRUE BIZ, TOMORROWx3, and CARRIE SOTO. The bigger the concept, the better!

I am a dog person, a whisky person, a classical and jazz person. I'm also a mother, a writer, an MCU geek, an amateur naturalist, and a Charlotte Mason educator. Hit me with what you've got that you think I'll enjoy! <3

Give me books with religion that aren't *about* religion. If you have a manuscript that explores myth, faith, anthropology, philosophy, or the intersection of those, but isn't for an explicitly religious audience, I want to see it.

Give me books about books. Characters who love books, make books, read books, wrote books. Lists of books. You get the picture. 📚

I'd love books that help us see poverty from a new perspective, preferably from someone with experience living in poverty, but it could also be anyone who understands that when anyone is in poverty, we all are.

I also want books on any topic that the family can read aloud together! Think Secret Garden, Gregor the Overlander, Narnia, Green Ember, the Penderwicks, and Understood Betsy (if you've read that one, you'd better mention it in your query!)

Give me books for #generationartemis! All the space books EXCEPT space opera (sorry!)! Think Andy Weir, Mary Doria Russell, and Fonda Lee. Also more fiction picture books with space themes! Non-fiction is good too, but I want something fresh.
