RICH, MULTI-LAYERED NON-FICTION
Books she adores in this area: Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake, People Who Eat Darkness by Richard Lloyd Parry or Nothing To Envy by Barbara Demick. (4/7)

One of my fave reads this summer: TELL ME EVERYTHING by @ErikaKrouse . The braiding of two investigations— one a groundbreaking Title IX case, the other into her own past (and her understanding of herself)— is spell-binding. This is the non-fiction I want for my list! #MSWL

In nonfiction, I have yet to really develop a taste for what I want. I love topics such as spirituality, intuition, natural living, community, culture, food, and agriculture. But would also love to be surprised by something completely new to me!

Updated #MSWL here!

I am open to adult fiction and nonfiction only!

"The human brain is an endless source of fascination. I'd welcome nonfiction titles exploring the nexus between neuroscience and other fields, e.g., neuropsychology, neurosociology, neuropharmacology, neuronutrition, etc."

YA: coming of age romance like Last Night at the Telegraph Club or Ari & Dante w/gorgeous prose; coming of gender; atmospheric gothic (like The Handmaiden); historical/nf; mystery/thrillers like Firekeeper's Daughter or Patron Saints of Nothing; character-driven speculative. 4/6

PB: I'd love to see nonfiction & fiction that undermine heteronormativity/gender binaries & celebrate queer kids beginning to find words for who they are, or who don't yet have the words for "trans," "nonbinary" (how you can be AMAB, feel like a girl, & still like girls) 2/6

With #queerpit approaching, I thought I'd write up a super specific super gay #MSWL . I acquire for picture books, MG, YA, graphic novels, & nonfiction for Atheneum, and I'm looking for queer esp intersectional (BIPOC, neurodivergent, disabled) and trans/NB/genderqueer voices. 1/6

"I'm looking for nonfiction books on occult topics, like BECOMING DANGEROUS edited by Katie West, WITCHES OF AMERICA by Alex Mar, and Taschen’s THE LIBRARY OF ESOTERICA series."
