As always, I want more #ownvoices fiction in all age ranges. #MSWL
Replying to @Erica_Bauman

This is *very* specific, but I'd love to see a #YA retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche. It's my favorite. #MSWL

#MSWL: Re-tellings for any age group (fairy tale & mythology) are always on my wishlist as are books WITHOUT vampires & werewolves.
