"I want unique, genre-blending romance novels. I wish I had worked on THE PLUS ONE by Sarah Archer or any of Roselle Lim’s breathtaking romantic contemporary fantasy novels. Give me an adult rom com in space, or with magic."

"I'm interested in upmarket thrillers that use an engaging thriller premise to explore personal/social issues – THE ECHO WIFE and WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING are two of my all-time favourite books."

"Send me romance with queer protagonists, especially aro/ace-spec (eg. DELILAH GREEN DOESN'T CARE by Ashley Herring Blake, LOVE & OTHER DISASTERS by Anita Kelly, and THE ROMANTIC AGENDA by Claire Kann)."

"Psychological thrillers with new twists on my favorite classic tropes: unstable (or unhinged) narrators, missing memories or time, seemingly decent people with dark pasts, stalking, gaslighting in any form."

"Deep dives into specific events and people fascinate me, such as THE RADIUM GIRLS: THE DARK STORY OF AMERICA'S SHINING WOMEN, THE IMMORTAL LIFE OF HENRIETTA LACKS, and THE VINYL FRONTIER: THE STORY OF NASA'S INTERSTELLAR MIXTAPE."

"I'm on the lookout for mystery thrillers that explore a 'true crime' in their fictional world. Who does it impact, and how? What is justice? Think A GOOD GIRL'S GUIDE TO MURDER, NOTHING CAN HURT YOU, MY FLAWLESS LIFE, and JACKAL."
