I wish more books talked about how weird Catholic school is. Loved "The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School" and I want more. MORE! #mswl

"In rom coms, my favorite tropes are friends-to-lovers, fake dating, and second chance romance—though I'm open to other tropes! If you have a new twist on these classic tropes, I'd love to take a look."

So this is really specific but I’d love to find a book that could be pitched as “Milk tea shop for villains” with a hot snarky grump boba barista. I’m talking low stakes, dark satire, with a mystery involved (also set in East Asia pls) #MSWL

Oddly I can feel myself becoming a sports person 😛 so if you have a soccer book, specifically girls/women's soccer (not a sports book exactly but one where it is a strong component), I'd be into it! #MSWL

Writing that's sharp and biting, or writing that's lyrically astounding. Is there a touch of magic? A heap? Yes, I want it.

And I want all of it to be BIPOC and/or queer.

I'd really love to laugh, like a book about a bunch of aunties the rest of the community thinks are well past their prime--and I want to see them as full, gossipy, pushy people; what do they want? (And we return to BANDIT QUEENS!)

I want a mystery that characters wish they hadn't solved. A mystery that isn't about the mystery, really, at all, but about the people--the kind of ending that feels inevitable, like putting these people in that room at once--well, nothing else could have happened.

give me Heathcliff, give me the lover that has so misunderstood what love is that they perform deeds that leave them bloody. Give me a love that has soured and make me yearn for it anyways. I want more hauntings, more ghost stories.

Give me Practical Magic, I'm begging you.

entirely missed #mswl day--but in truth every day is MSWL day! I'm yearning for smart, irreverent fiction with true heart that dives into more than one voice: always dreaming of PORTRAIT OF A THIEF (@gracedli 👀) and THE BANDIT QUEENS. Give me a doomed, impossible love story...
