MG/YA ORPHAN BLACK. One of my fave TV shows. Love the balance of the scifi, intrigue, & the family dynamics. #mswl twitter.com/susanhawk/stat…

Native/indigenous authors w/stories that mix contemporary life w/the fantasy, mythic, ancestral or spiritual aspects of their culture. #MSWL

Always! You make me laugh out loud and I'm going to do what it takes to buy your book. #mswl twitter.com/susanhawk/stat…

YA magical realism with mystery and a dark side like Nova Ren Suma's THE WALLS AROUND US or Laura Ruby's BONE GAP. #MSWL

YA Master of None. Cleverly written about hard truths of what it's like to date as a teen but also some light @ the end of the tunnel #mswl

Upmarket/womens fic or mystery/thriller w/dancer MC esp. Latin dancer- bonus points if salsa, bachata, merengue or rumba is involved. #MSWL

I LOVE historical fantasy. Am most interested in non-Western settings, but open to all. #MSWL

Another evergreen: boys in boarding school. A SEPARATE PEACE 4ever #MSWL

In MG, I'd love to see body image tackled honestly and thoughtfully, in a fresh way. #MSWL

Middle grade mystery, smart, funny w/heart & sense of place (think Greenglass House), positive familial relations #MSWL

Coming of age or coming out YA or NA w/LGBTQ immigrant protag dealing clashing values betw modern world and culture & tradition. #MSWL

An American Agatha Christie, for MG or YA! #MSWL

Evergreen #MSWL: funny ladies in diary form. ALWAYS.

While we're at it, 20s era historical in general. #MSWL

Also dying for a lush magical realism historical YA--GIRLS AT THE KINGFISHER CLUB with a touch of magic. #MSWL

I love side-character romance. Possibly more than full-on romance. Show me the YA where the best friend and the brother fall in love #MSWL

HUMOR. If you're writing something funny - esp like wry, smart humor - I'd love to see it. PB, CB, MG, YA. #MSWL

STEM-focused middle grade or YA, strong female MCs-bonus points for diverse, POC #MSWL

Hist fiction re Filipino or Korean comfort women of WWII-dark but w/hope & redemption, sense of place/era/culture & captivating prose #MSWL

THIS!! How have I never thought of this?!? I watch CM on ION every night. #mswl Talk Morgan and Hotch to me. twitter.com/laurenplude/st…
