I'm on the hunt for YA with characters you root for, heart, vulnerability, and a great voice, a la Rainbow Rowell. #MSWL#mswl YES. Characters who follow you off the page & into your day dreams are the driving force of a killer YA, imho.

Overall, for YA, I'm looking for something ~FUN~. Not issue-driven. High concept. #MSWLNonfiction (for adult or children): geeky things, pop culture obsessions, science, history of a thing, lifestyle for millennials. #MSWL

YA with a protagonist like Blaine Anderson (Glee): slightly nerdy, hopeless romantic, perfectionist, angsty. #MSWL pic.twitter.com/XvUzakAj5gPsychological horror for YA. Terrify me. #MSWL

Eerie mystery for YA. Unusual structure or elements. Think NIGHT FILM for a younger market. #MSWLYA with a protagonist like Blaine Anderson (Glee): slightly nerdy, hopeless romantic, perfectionist, angsty. #MSWL

In every category, I love stories that recognize that friendship is as complex, fraught, and valuable as family or romance. #MSWLYou know how Aaron Sorkin writes flawed pragmatic brilliant optimists taking work seriously? That, but a novel. #butwithoutthemisogyny #MSWL

Dark, feminist fairy tale retelling. The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter for YA (novel though, not stories). #MSWLEerie mystery for YA. Unusual structure or elements. Think NIGHT FILM for a younger market. #MSWL

Contemporary YA from the POV of the bad boy. Ex: Sebastian (Glee) or maybe even Chuck Bass (GG) without the problematic rape subplot. #MSWLDark, feminist fairy tale retelling. The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter for YA (novel though, not stories). #MSWL

A really good contemporary YA romance. F/F, M/F, M/M, or even non-binary — don't care, as long as the chemistry is good. #MSWLContemporary YA from the POV of the bad boy. Ex: Sebastian (Glee) or maybe even Chuck Bass (GG) without the problematic rape subplot. #MSWL
