I also have a soft spot for weird gothic stories like Sweeney Todd or Corpse Bride. Would love to find a spacegothic similar to the vibe of Vampire Hunter D (without vampires though)

In modern fantasy I'm looking for things like Jade City. Give me family shenanigans, politics, with really unique magic systems. Babel and Black Sun are always top on my list. Overall anything with colonizer bashing themes, non-western mythos, pirates, or dark academics

Since my ventures into MHA I'm curious to read about more unlikeable heroes or grumpy protagonists with the character development of Katsuki Bakugou. Also give me friends to enemies like JJK Gojo and Geto. I love blurred lines and moral grayness.

In sci-fi and horror think Love Death + Robot themes like Zima Blue, Ice, or Jibaro. I love a blend of culture, punkfuturism, anticolonialism, humor, and a pinch of weirdness.

Anything akin to #MDZS I'm all in for. Give me adventure, slow burns, mythology, dark lore, elevated magic systems, men with pretty hair

Here's an updated #mswl to help guide querying writers interested in submitting to me now that I've reopened.

“I want to read contemporary YA with GOSSIP GIRL or RIVERDALE levels of drama.”

Be advised, the PSLA inbox is currently closed to queries. 📪💤

We will be re-opening the inbox on September 5th.

Agents, authors, I've been updating my website recently to reflect my role at @DisneyBooks —including by adding an #mswl page! Head on over to check it out: rachelstark7.wixsite.com/home/general-1

(Sadly due to legal blah-blah, I really, *really* can't look at un-agented/unsolicited pitches)

"I'm looking for genre-blending fiction... books that pull a bit of genre into the literary."

I thought I might try a #MSWL thread with a slightly different spin. Agents, these are a selection of my favourite books of all time, in no particular order, so you can get to know the kind of SFF I love.

I am looking for character-driven, laugh-out-loud, commercial picture books!
