A lot of the hyped YA books I see are marketed as “a love letter to…” and that’s great, but when I was a young adult, I wanted to read books that amplified, examined, validated, & vented my rage. I know those books are out there, but often unhyped.So, suggestions for angry YA?
ughhh ultimate #mswl

My daily life is centered around being fine as hell in all-black and dodging lesbian drama while throwing ass. Like please, give me characters who are about that life!!!! #mswl
That whole social climbing, marriage aspirations is not my lane, honey.

A #MSWL update:
I’m no longer taking YA submissions. I’ll consider any YA subs that are already in my submissions folder, but will be focusing my attention solely on adult horror for Nightfire moving forward.

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
