I'm particularly interested in YA that's about the nature of female friendships. Contemporary, but other genres too - fantasy esp. #MSWL

For contemporary YA, I really want a book about two female best friends. Unbreakable bond sort of thing. #MSWL

Super feminist and body positive MG and YA. #MSWL
Replying to @beth_phelan

Definitely queer POC on my #MSWL. Sweeping, breathtaking, VERY romantic or friendship-focused. Maybe magical.
