I want urban fantasy in MG too please! Series potential and big friend groups, family-focused, heartfelt—would love to fight some surprise tears reading a fun, sweeping adventure. #MSWL

For my MG, right now I really want magical adventure! Send me something fantastical and fun, with a great hook, and friendships that shine. Especially if there are any non-human magical characters incorporated in a fresh way. #MSWL

On my #MSWL, contemporary middle grade books about boys and friendship. Boys care and worry about and love their friends, but there aren’t enough books that tackle those emotions and experiences.

And if you're like "I'm not 100% sure this sci-fi/fantasy works for the genre because it's more about the sibling/BFF relationship as they navigate the speculative world..." QUERY ME PLZ #MSWL

Ever have a friend crush? Like someone you just want to be platonically friends with so bad it hurts but you're too awkward and have no idea how friendships are initiated SO YOU JUST SIT THERE SAD HOPING THEYLL NOTICE YOU. AND WHY DO I SUDDENLY WANT TO MAKE THIS A BOOKum YES #MSWL

#mswl I know I’m currently closed for submissions but I’ve been watching Alexa & Katie on Netflix and would love a story about two girls and the strength of their friendship while one battles an illness. Would definitely make an exception for this!

#MSWL Love stories ala Gayle Forman or David Nicholls. All the feels, all the sobs, all the love. Love tropes like unrequited love, enemies/friends to lovers, or job passion romances, IF executed well.

Obviously interracial relationships don't end racism but tbh I would really love more MG/YA with interracial friendships & romances that don't involve white pplMore of my friends growing up were POC than not even though (or possibly because?) I lived in very white areas
Agreed 1000%. @MekishaTelfer and I were talking about this. #mswl forever

I’m dying for a #Latinx “Friends” & In The Heights crossover novel featuring a group of friends living in #TheBarrio. You know, just POC being POC in the 21st century. Even better if it’s #RomCom btwn 2 of the friends. #MSWL

LOVE FRIENDSHIP STORIES? #FridayReads #authors18 twitter.com/BookSparks/sta…I've been lucky in life in the friendship category which is perhaps why a good friendship story is always high on my #mswl and a reason why I fell in love with @AckermanBooks's submission way back when.
