Just finished The Idea of You by @robinnelee and cannot stop thinking about it. A delicious romance and perfect second-act story. I need more unputdownable, sophisticated romances like this in my life. If you've written one, send it my way #mswl

I am looking for hooky cosy crime and historical fiction set in/around WW2.
Morally grey, complex and flawed characters are a plus!

I am on the lookout for romance with all the feels, contemporary, epic or timeslip, and hooky female-led crime and thrillers #mswl
Literary Agent
I am looking for thrillers and crime fiction of all types; book club and historical fiction that moves me and makes me think (including novels featuring fantasy/mythology). In non-fiction, books which open up the conversation and take me on a journey. #mswl

The pitch: YA mystery anthology narrated by the witnesses/suspects written by all different authors in different styles. BLACKOUT meets “The Afterparty.” #MSWL

Will a librarian or used bookseller tell me which author or series they see often damaged by bathwater? Those are the books I want, the books folks got so absorbed in that they turned a page and dropped the whole thing in the tub and then tried to salvage with the hairdryer trickThese are always the books I want to read and the books I want to represent #mswl

I'm looking for a sizzling hot UF or paranormal that's 75K or under. Bonus points if it has two or more types of paranormals. If you have one, please send it my way! #MSWL

Reading a lovely submission about a scientist and an earl, which now has me researching why we, in the USA, don't drive on the left-hand side of the road & what my American Mustang looks like in Great Britain...📕📕📕 #MSWL

Would love to see more books about drag queens, kings, and performers. Fiction and nonfiction. #MSWL
Books should be written about this, and if they are already, tell me what they're called because I want to read them #MSWL

My kid is playing with my calculator and showed me a random 10 digit number and said: "MOM THIS IS THE LAST NUMBER" with awe and reverence. So I'm going to need that SF novel one day, too. #mswl

"Laziness is more than the absence or avoidance of work; it’s also the enjoyment of lazing in the sun, or in another’s arms," writes Elliot Kukla, a rabbi who provides spiritual care to people who are grieving, dying, ill or disabled. nyti.ms/3GgtBgH“Shh, Abba,” he says. “Hills don’t move or talk . . . they just lie still and grow things.”
This. This is #MSWL. Give me a lazy book, that doesn’t demand hard work or trying. Give me a book about how it’s okay to take breaks.

If you're at all unsure if your project is the right fit, try me with a query anyway. I am always looking for debuts that feel fresh. #MSWL
Literary Agent
I think I haven't mentioned what I'm looking for in a while: thrillers for adults and romance/rom-com for adults that have fresh hooks. Upmarket fiction from underrepresented perspectives. I am not open to expanding my children's list at the moment. #MSWL
