HUMOROUS VOICES! A lot of the contemporary I read and acquire has a witty/ funny narrator, and an author with a gift for humor (see: Cece in @SoniaHartl1's HAVE A LITTLE FAITH IN ME). Please, please send me your funny books! #MSWL

I would LOVE to see middle grade contemporary stories about families, friendship, or broken friendships. Bonus points for humor and/or mischievous main characters. #MSWL #LGBTQ+ #BIPOC #amquerying #WritingCommunity

Hey #MSWL: Am seeking a great love story with dimension, humor, and a strong commercial hook. Think ONE DAY or THE LIGHT WE LOST, but not necessarily a weepy. I am esp eager to read #ownvoices stories or underrepresented narratives in this space.I’m bumping this #MSWL ask up, too. Send me a temporary escape, please! One that makes forget how weird it is that my last load of laundry consisted, largely, of face masks in various sizes...

YA: the MC needs to have a strange interest that teaches me something new. I don't do super heavy (sexual assault, addiction, abuse, suicide), and I like to laugh. Not a good fit for sad w/o humor. Quirky voice gets me every time. I love female friendship/empowerment and spooks.

if we've talked about books in the last five years, I have likely screamed about how much I love THE ROYAL WE. Now, you get to hear me scream about my rabid love for its sequel - a perfect, warm hug of a book that you absolutely must buy and read and talk to me about immediately. twitter.com/fuggirls/statu…Literary Agent

Do you have any specific #MSWLs that you're wanting to see in any of the genres besides what's on the blog? #carinachatMy #MSWL includes escapist reads and feel-good stories these days. Romcoms, lighthearted characters, lower-angst conflict, light paranormal elements, humorous cozies. Stories with cookies and puppies and bighearted characters. Make me smile!

When I was like 14, me and a few mates would “wag” French class and hide out in the soundproof drum room until lunch time. This went on for a few weeks when one day we discovered a “trap door” beneath the carpet tiled floor under the drum kit. We of course opened the trap door.. twitter.com/spur_of/status…This. #MSWL
The tone, the humor, the shenanigans. I love it.

Three things right now:
1. Clinical books about how we can heal ourselves during this difficult time.
2. Books that offer a world of escapism such as fantasy and science fiction, etc.
3. Lighthearted and humorous books to lighten the mood.
