Historical romances! Anything that comps to Evie Dunmore, Cat Sebastian, or Mimi Matthews with a queer, feminist, and/or BIPOC focus is for me! Also send holiday historicals like A HOLIDAY BY GASLIGHT my way!

Contemporary romances! I'm looking for book-heavy reads like BOOK LOVERS; career-heavy reads like THE EX TALK; romances that talked grad school like LOVE IN THE TIME OF SERIAL KILLERS; romances that explored fandom like SPOILER ALERT; and sweet & emotional reads like REEL!

✨2023 MSWL✨

It's that time of year for my updated #MSWL! I'm so excited to jump into a new year of reading all of your queries. Here's what I'm looking for:

Academia! Forgive me for desperately missing university, but I'm still looking for all of those old-book vibes. Dark academia historical mysteries; professor MC/love interests a la DANI BROWN; and an abundance of libraries!

#mswl I am really into my gothic horror at the moment. Especially if you can comp Crimson Peak, Nothing but Blackened Teeth, or Dracula.

Friendships are the new romance! I want stories showing found family and friendships through their ups and downs #mswl

I want more brooding teens with wells of power but surprisingly squishy hearts like in Naomi Novik’s Schoolomance #mswl

In adult fantasy I always want a little romance with my magic like in A Marvelous Light by Freya Marske #mswl

Recently more interested in stories of people interacting with animals or the natural world and could really enjoy narrative nonfiction or novels that speak to our relationship to the planet #mswl

I’m always curious for more historical fiction and narrative nonfiction from non-white/non-Eurocentric perspectives about events or individuals that deserve to be more widely talked about #mswl

On the YA side I want more SFF that features friend groups over “the chosen one” trope - I love a chaotic but loving found family! #mswl

I’m really grabbed by adult science fiction that takes place in near/far futures or invented worlds with technology that makes us question what it means to live well, with stories focused characters' unique lives like in Becky Chambers’ Wayfayers & Monk and Robot series #mswl

And just because I didn't add any historical romance, romantic suspense, etc. doesn't mean we're not acquiring it! I'd love to read those projects too. :) Check the guidelines for a full list of genres we're currently looking for.

Would love to see upmarket novels about the complex lives of women told through a great narrative voice like in The Push by Ashley Audrain or The Mothers by Brit Bennett #mswl

A note first, if you queried me before December 16, 2022 please hold off on resending until February as I am still reading queries in my old system. Thanks!

The other is, and I cannot stress this enough, super sexy. If you’ve been dying to write an emotionally distant alphahole who only learns to love once he’s met the right person for him (and antagonized them lightly before learning his lesson), please, please send it to me. #mswl
