Jen “eeeeek” Edwards @Jene_e_edwards

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.

This is why I love novels that are focused on the bonds between young women -- crushes came and went, but my female friendships defined my high school experience. #MSWL

Reading @AshWrites’ new book, and remembering @WriteinBK’s talk yesterday at the festival, I’m reminded how badly I want to read more YA friendship books.

If you’re writing one, query me next year when I’m open again. ❤️ #MSWL

You know what’s I wish we had more YA books about? Toxic friendship breakups. How to grieve healthily and move on. Teens and young adults. need to know; otherwise, they aren’t prepared.

Give me this! #MSWL

#MSWL I always fall for the "best friends should be dating" trope but lately I'd also love a bff pair who love and admire one another's beautiful selves but also do not want to bang. Think Jack & Liz or Harry & Hermione or John Kimble & Phoebe O'Hara (Kindergarten Cop, y'all).

I’m late to the #MSWL party this week but I can still hang, right? Here’s what I’m looking for right now:

YA of all genres that feature friendships as found families #MSWL

Looking for a modern-day #YA #SisterhoodoftheTravelingPants with strong, positive female friendships! Magic realism is always a plus! #MSWL

@AlyssaJennette /a YA epistolary told ONLY through physical letters between friends who fall in love lamenting the dying art of letter writing.

#MSWL Not just (another) YA novel about having anxiety, but about the misunderstandings that arise between friends when one DOESN'T have anxiety, and how to deal.

Alyssa Jennette @AlyssaJennette

A YA epistolary novel told through chats, emails, and texts about the decline of a best-friendship. #MSWL

#MSWL #stilllooking EXTREMELY still want this.

#MSWL A novel--for any age group--about the breaking point in a friendship or family relationship. Tell me about having the strength to end contact with someone who can't be helped/is actively toxic. Relatedly: a book about intentional familial estrangement and its effects.

#MSWL By the way, the person doing the ending can be decisive AND devastated. It happens all the time! The agony comes before and after the decision is made, but that doesn't mean the decision isn't a clear one.

#MSWL I'm on the hunt for wildly entertaining literary fiction, narrative nonfiction, and memoir, esp from underrepresented perspectives. Dying to see non-Eurocentric HF, refreshing romcoms a la #CrazyRichAsians, propulsive toxic female friendship stories--omg the list goes on--

6. Two very different types of girls learning to appreciate each other and become best friends. #mswl

Friendship

· 12 Sep 2018

It's #MSWL day. Topping my list is commercial women’s fiction--particularly #ownvoices contemporaries; mother/daughter, sisters, or best friends stories for women in their 30s or 40s. Romance isn't necessary though I do love romance.

· 12 Sep 2018

Commercial “Millennial” novels: i.e. STARTUP, THE ASSISTANTS, THE KNOCKOFF, THE REGULARS. Starting careers, moving to new cities, friendships, new marriages etc #mswl

#MSWL MG Diverse and LGBTQIA+ voices. Middle grade is really some of the toughest years of my life, and anything that can help them realize it's okay to be different, is helpful. Love ghost stories and stories of crushes and friendship at this age.

· 12 Sep 2018

contemporary middle grade stories of friendship or family – potentially with a touch of magic #mswl

"Heist/con story, YA or adult! Preferably with an interesting ensemble cast & friendship focus." @kurestinarmada #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/
