Also dying for a lush magical realism historical YA--GIRLS AT THE KINGFISHER CLUB with a touch of magic. #MSWL

I love side-character romance. Possibly more than full-on romance. Show me the YA where the best friend and the brother fall in love #MSWL

Family stories from diverse perspectives like Williams-Garcia's One Crazy Summer or Lai's Listen, Slowly...diverse voices in general. #mswl

Creepy middle grade that's more about the emotion than the horror factor--like that you'd see from Neil Gaiman or Holly Black. #mswl

Romantic suspense with protective heroes who make heroine centre of their world. (...not in a creeper way) #mswl

I know high school girls can be mean, but I want a contemp YA that shows how important & life-affirming female friendship can be, too #MSWL

Historical romance with diverse heroes/heroines. I want to know about the Regency peeps of African/Indian/Jewish (&more!) descent. #MSWL

A kid-and-her-dog MG novel with depth and complexity, a la BECAUSE OF WINN DIXIE. It's a high bar because I am in love with that book. #MSWL

Looking for a MG that gives me a crazy amount of feelings. I love MG because as a 12 yr old, you're feeling A LOT for the first time...#MSWL
Replying to @alexyarnold

And I think the best MG fiction makes me look at "basic" human emotions (love, grief, loneliness) anew, through the eyes of a kid. #MSWL

If you have a melodramatic romance featuring young, rich 20-somethings (Hamptons, anyone?) being jerks with heart, I want it. #mswl
