#Trans femme voices (all genres)! Even though this was at the top of my wishlist last year, I received very few...crossing my fingers universe.

Cozy romantasy with stakes.

Queer and BIPOC romances! Desperate for more representation in my inbox. I'd love:
#MSWL
-contemporary with a speculative twist.

-Romances that feel like Talia Hibbert, Abby Jimenez, Emily Henry. Think delightful banter, big feels

-Monster F**er romances...

#MSWL Horror! I want all of it, but would especially love a hook-y slasher, psychological and body horror.

Horror I've enjoyed recently THE NIGHT GUEST, REST STOP, SO THIRSTY, Gretchen Felker-Martin, NEVER WHISTLE AT NIGHT. Reading: NESTLINGS and re-reading SHE IS A HAUNTING.

For the next two weeks we are open to adult upmarket/literary/commercial fiction (speculative elements including horror, etc. are OK!) and then we'll open to remaining genres like SFF

Very happy to share my #MSWL , working alongside @ecniumata !

Upmarket or book club fiction that blends genres, including speculative (always enjoy some spookiness!), fantasy/sci-fi, historical, mystery/thriller, etc. (1/10)

My favorite fantasy trope ever is the Planet of the Apes twist, i.e. when your strange and old timey fantasy world is secretly the future. Send me that please! #mswl
