I remember when I first read @jodipicoult's MY SISTER'S KEEPER, years ago, and it rocked me--such a nuanced, intimate portrayal of the impact of an ethical question/crisis. So excited for the next novel, and please do send me anything you have in Picoult's vein here. #MSWL twitter.com/randomhouse/st…Same. I want impossible choices and situations, for teens. #mswl

All this chatter about a vampire (and werewolf) comeback. I have thoughts...I like my supernatural, human-but-not characters. But I’d love some new takes—not the resurrecting of classics that worked the last time around. Let’s see new perspectives get a bite at that apple.
After a fantastic chat with @hroot, @tayhaggerty, and the Orbit editorial team this afternoon, I’ve realized that one of my evergreen #MSWL items is “sprawling, deeply messed up, magical families who both love and hate each other, and maybe change the world sometimes.”

been thinking about how the worst heartbreak i’ve ever suffered was from a friendship breakup, and how that is so rarely explored in YA. i didn’t know how to cope because i didn’t know anyone who had gone through something that intense. we need to fix this.I can't tell you how much I say I want to acquire books about friendships, especially how to deal with either growing up and apart or having an incident that breaks the friendship apart. #MSWL

I would also love to see more slice of life meets supernatural/fantastical in the same vein as the webcomic Lore Olympus. #MSWLThis yes!!! I freaking love Lore Olympus. #mswl

SAMMME~ But I'd love to see multicultural witches. Brujas, hoodoos, asian witches running apothecaries! #mswl twitter.com/TiffanyDiahann…I'm a big proponent of diversity (begins to list family heritage) so yes to all of this. #mswl

Okay, it’s officially fall and last week was a lot so:
Agents, send me your proposals, your novels, your stories of badass women yearning to breathe free. My body, brain, and inbox are ready. #MSWL #MondayMood

Also, I know this is very specific, but I'm dying for a YA set in the Jewish ghetto in WW2 Shanghai. I've literally been thinking about this for years...If it's a love story, even better! #ownvoices #MSWLI’ve been looking for this for years (MG or YA)! This is my grandma’s story and a mainstay on my #MSWL.
