some character comps on my #mswl :

wave: mechanic. intense about tech, will fangirl over your build and its components, but will trash talk it to your face

espio: ninja/spy. incredibly good at what he does, but becomes useless and flustered when partnered with women. reads. spoils books on purpose.

I’m drawn to campy, voice-driven stories across genres that mix romance and friendship with a streak of morbid humor. Books that are wickedly fun to read and altogether a good time, with a touch of the macabre wrapped in charm. #MSWL

If your book has this feeling, mood, tone, yearning, desperation, and refusal to quit, then I want to read it! #MSWL

you may also have seen such hits as LitRPG, Afrofuturism, and Folklore/Fairytale retellings on my official MSWL, and tbh literally all of the these and more can be combined with the above specific genres and I'd be down. I love genre crossovers and books that are more than face value!

BIG MECH SUITS

so obviously this is a SF genre but legit I want something like Pacific Rim (the first movie not the terrible sequel) or Gurren Lagann.

GUNDAM is fun, but I'm looking for less political/military vibes and more kaiju/teamwork vibes, or even smth on building your own mech (Ironheart)

- Legend of Korra
- Bioshock
- Lies of P
- Dishonored
