Lastly, I want to thank everyone who has sent me their sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and other genres not called out here. They are and will always be a core part of my list, and I'm so grateful to see them in my inbox on a daily basis. 💛

Non-fiction, in general. I would love to see more pop culture, music, psychology, science, history, business, lifestyle/wellness, and narrative non-fiction from a unique, engaging angle.

High heat contemporary romance and romantasy! (I’m always looking for low heat romance too, but I tend to see more of that in my inbox.) #MSWL

Small town contemporary/women’s fiction with elements of romance, in the vein of SWEET MAGNOLIAS and VIRGIN RIVER. Deals with big topics in a warm, community-focused setting. #MSWL

Thrillers! Think psychological or domestic, rather than supernatural. I’m not the best fit for mystery or crime, but I love when mysteries or crimes occur in thrillers. #MSWL

Contemporary novels in the upmarket and literary space! I love workplace novels, complicated relationships (platonic, romantic or familial), and second coming of age stories. #MSWL

I've made some updates to my #MSWL , and along with that, I want to highlight some things on my wishlist that I don't see as often in my query inbox. 🧵

Chatted with an editor on Friday who said her imprint is looking for less steamy rom-coms for readers who've aged out of MG but aren't ready for the spice of recent YA titles. This is exactly how I'd describe my own rom-com tastes, so if you've got one, please send it! #mswl
