I'd love to find some sort of story about feuding families. More Hatfields & McCoys though, not so much Romeo & Juliet. #MSWL

As a true crime fan, I always wonder about the family of a patriarch convicted of murder—especially in a case where the truth of what happened is unclear and the family stands behind him despite their secret doubts. I want the upmarket women’s fiction version of this story #MSWL

I read THE DEATH OF MRS WESTAWAY this weekend, which reminded me how much I love stories with creepy old houses and lots of juicy family secrets. Send me some! #MSWL

I am also looking for a transgender family story--a family going through a child's transition or a child with a transgender parent #MSWL #AskAgent I'm sure the list could go on. lol

Close to my heart and the top of my #MSWL—make my #PrideMonth dreams come true. Give me happy LGBTQ+ couples making the PNW home, a QPoC cryptozoologist and her artist wife discovering magic in Cascadia, or #nf stories of queer legends and revolutionaries.On my #MSWL, I want underrepresented or new perspectives on PNW history. Give me PNW creation myths told by native writers. An early pioneer falls through time. The tale of a family of immigrants to the PNW from the contemporary frame!

Reminder that not all work by POC must be weighty, dramatic books. White authors got to write thousands of fluffy books and cash the checks. We shouldn't be appreciated only when it gets dark and horrible.THIS!!!!
I SAY THIS TO EVERY PERSON WHO ASKS ME WHAT I'M LOOKING TO ACQUIRE.
SEND ME AN THE LIGHT AND FLUFFY POC BOOKS, ESPECIALLY FRIENDSHIP BOOKS, SIBLING BOOKS, AND BOOKS WHERE ALL THE HIJINKS HAPPEN. #MSWL twitter.com/silviamg/statu…

It seems after losing my Dad 6 yrs ago this August, I've found so much happiness in baking. I'm all about a book that celebrates making food, sharing it, and using it as a bridge to keeping connected with friends and family #MSWL
Jessica Faust @BookEndsJessica · 25 May 2018
I'm always looking for domestic suspense, especially something #ownvoices & family-related (not just husband and wife) #MSWL
Lauren Abramo @LaurenAbramo · 23 May 2018
But not every book needs a romantic interest of any kind. Romance isn't something everyone has/wants. I love friendship stories. I love found family stories. Have a book that understands that friendship is as fraught and rewarding as any other relationship? Please query me. #MSWL
