In general, my #MSWL includes big emotions, multi-level plots, female friendships, sweeping urban fantasy, clever fairytale retellings, reimagined classics, unique story structures, locked-room YA thrillers, MG with magical creatures, heists & spies & assassins, rivals to lovers, and diverse voices.

Boy books for a YA audience. #MSWL

*tbh I'd love to see a character like Stiles from Teen Wolf, bonus points for a father/son relationship like he has with his dad and strong friendship dynamics.

Some specifics I'm looking for in MG:
-kids who aren't good students
-kids reckoning with their own unkindness (like Jennifer Chan is Not Alone)
-boy characters & friendships, including fun books
-books with strong voices and series potential (bring me the next Animorphs & Princess Diaries!)

Would love to see something similar to Beetlejuice and Netflix Wednesday and Dead Boy Detectives.

Whimsy and preferably with a group of friends and light romance. #MSWL

I’m hungry for thrillers! I love complicated family dynamics and toxic friendships, especially tense mother/daughter relationships.

I would love to see something for fans of Wendy Walker or Lucy Foley. And more locked room thrillers!

#MSWL would love a story featuring a septuagenarian or octogenarian group of friends in genres of literary fiction, thriller, women’s fiction, etc but want older protagonists both cute and taking no shit similar to THURSDAY MURDER CLUB
