High Concept
Lydia Sharp ☕❤📚 @lydia_sharp · 12 Jan 2018
a basic #mswl tweet for new followers & a refresher for the rest of you
*mainly* I am seeking...
YA fantasy, any sub-genre
YA sci-fi, any sub-genre
YA contemp, anything from fluffy rom-com to dark thrillers
all must have a strong romantic element & a high concept hook

It's the thick of holiday bookselling season, and I ask myself one question over and over every day: where are the new YA books aimed at boys? 1/12#MSWL YA Fantasy. High Concept. No central romance (Ace/Aro welcome). Think: The Novice, Ranger's Apprentice, The Last Apprentice, Cinda Wiliams Chima, James Dashner.

I'd really love a high-concept, aspirational romance. Think To All the Boys I've Loved Before and 13 Little Blue Envelopes #MSWL
Kimberley Atkins @kimberleyatkins · 5 Oct 2017
#MSWL A contemporary high-concept love story like #OneDay or #MissYou or #MeBeforeYou by an Australian author. Ideally it will make me cry.

AKA MG with a Gravity Falls, Stranger Things (the kids arc), or even Attack the Block vibe. #MSWLYA SF that takes its science seriously. Good worldbuilding, strong characterization, emotional honesty. No high concept. #MSWL

In YA, I'm always eager for fantasy and high-concept stories. Give me a world we've never seen before. #MSWL
