Malicious compliance in YA or MG #MSWL

#MSWL an epic heist story in MG, YA, or NA. If you know, you know

it’s spooky season and I want to read some spooky queries 👻 I’m still very much on the hunt for horror and thrillers in both MG (is MG thriller a thing? it should be…) and YA! here are a few concepts really piquing my interest right now 👇🏻🎃 #mswl #amquerying

#DVpit inspired me to reopen to queries sooner than I'd planned... Starting Nov 2025, I'll be open to unsolicited queries the first week of every month! Still just YA + MG fiction... Really hungry for 🤩 debut voices... You'll be able to submit here: querytracker.net/querybeth #mswl

"Send me inventive middle grade fantasy novels. Ex: THE GIRL WHO DRANK THE MOON, WHEN YOU TRAP A TIGER, THE LAND OF STORIES, and THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL."

#MSWL A relationship dynamic with Jack and Kim vibes from “Kickin' It.” Bonus if it’s an MG crush/first love story. If you know, you know.

#MSWL A middle grade mystery. It could be a cozy mystery and/or something with “The Naturals” vibes for a younger reader. Standalone or standalone with series potential preferred.

Still looking for great space non-fiction for all ages, but particularly middle grade. NASA history is one of my adult obsessions and with Artemis launching next year, I want to inspire the next gen of astronauts and flight controllers. #mswl

This is your friendly reminder I open to queries TOMORROW! I'll be open to PB-YA and I can't wait to see all of your amazing projects! Here is a link to my updated #MSWL :

I'd love a middle grade mystery that reminds me of The Westing Game, Blue Balliet, Lemony Snicket, or Varian Johnson #mswl

I reopen to queries in just 9 days and am so excited! I will be open the first week of each month through the spring of 2026. What am I looking for? Here’s my full #MSWL :

growing apart, first crushes, first dances, all of the ups and downs of tween-hood!

Horror in MG: give me all the horror and spooky vibes please! Anything in the vein of The Jumbies, The Otherwoods, The Clackity, Last Laugh, and so on!

to lovers -- somebody making it out of the friendzone.

Thriller: I would love a psychological thriller! Something that really makes me think and has me on the edge of my seat!

In MG: I would love a funny contemporary story that is relatable to all -- friendship breakups,

My life was a puzzle that didn’t make sense until I embraced being queer and genderfluid. #mswl more queer books, especially for MG/YA and new adult graphic novels and literary YA/coming-of age like Aristotle & Dante Discover the Sectets of the Universe or Last Night at the Telegraph Club

I'd love to see more YA and MG in my inbox #mswl

"Send me graphic novels or graphic nonfiction with a distinctive illustration style that makes use of the visual format for middle grade, young adult, or adult readers."

I'm excited to announce I've found my agenting niche! Moving forward, I'll only be repping KidLit: PB, MG, YA, and some NA. I'm open for MG only starting in September. #amquerying I'll drop my #mswl in the comments!

Across the board, I'd like to see more funny books, but especially in picture book and middle grade. #MSWL
