Oh I really like ensemble comedies. Behind the scenes in a restaurant or theatre or on a team or or or? AND FUNNY? YES PLEASE. #mswl

If you have something on my #MSWL send it my way querymanager.com/query/1005! If you don't…still query! I never know what I want until I get it!

Historical romance with diverse heroes/heroines. I want to know about the Regency peeps of African/Indian/Jewish (&more!) descent. #MSWL

Surprising MG and YA that breaks new ground, POVs that are under-represented, particularly from #OwnVoices creators. #MSWL

YA, WF, GF: A novel that plays w memories. Living the same experience as someone else & recalling the events differently. #MSWL

A kid-and-her-dog MG novel with depth and complexity, a la BECAUSE OF WINN DIXIE. It's a high bar because I am in love with that book. #MSWL

WOULD READ #mswl

I should just Princess Bride my #MSWL list: "Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, True Love, miracles..."

Odd things I like: yarn, metal detectors, caves & crypts, strange animals, chemistry, HS marching bands, detailed lists, and cheese. #MSWL

A deeply romantic magical realism YA. #MSWL

And definitely graphic novel illustrator-writers (esp if diverse!!), like my client @katfcomix #MSWL

Stories that make me cry, like BETWEEN SHADES OF GRAY or OKAY FOR NOW); Witches! Goblins! Magical realism...and the kitchen sink #MSWL

Unconventional love stories! Kidnapping! Adventure! Marginalized protags in non-issue stories (like my fave ATTACK THE BLOCK!) #MSWL

And I think the best MG fiction makes me look at "basic" human emotions (love, grief, loneliness) anew, through the eyes of a kid. #MSWL

Last one: I love the American west. That's my home. Lit fic set in CO, NM, etc. People get Up To Stuff out west and I am HERE FOR IT #MSWL

I want to be surprised in the realm of MG, YA, and adult fiction. Pirates! Epic love! Plus-sized protags! Creepy tales! Historicals! #MSWL

#MSWL Gimme all your #ownvoices contemporary commercial fiction with Muslim protagonists. MG, YA, adult. Set here or elsewhere.

If you have a melodramatic romance featuring young, rich 20-somethings (Hamptons, anyone?) being jerks with heart, I want it. #mswl

Looking for a MG that gives me a crazy amount of feelings. I love MG because as a 12 yr old, you're feeling A LOT for the first time...#MSWL

#MSWL Story of career con artists a la The Grifters w/ humor. Extra points for lines John Cusack would deliver perfectly in the audiobook.
