@BookEndsJessica If you want the same book but with a different author, that's toeing the line of plagerism. If the information is not gender specific, what is the point of a gender specific author? Do readers care about gender or only the validity of the information?

Replying to @theking4mayor

I think you'll find in any #MSWL nobody wants "the same" book with a different author. We want a book that's as powerful and compelling as the one that touched us, but a different author would write a different book certainly.

As a woman in business, I read business books & listen to podcasts & seek out those by women. But I’m discouraged that most are still written by white men. Is there a belief that the audience for these books will only read white men?

I’d like to see more books by POC & women that are written for ALL business owners & entrepreneurs. #mswl just because a book is written by a woman why do we target only women in the subject?

HELLO, STARRED REVIEW FROM PUBLISHERS WEEKLY 😱😱😱

"...Weymouth infuses her characters with a rich panoply of emotions set against wartime England. A shining thread of hope and healing mitigates the book’s heartbreak and underlying trauma..."

This book sounds great (and perfect for fans of @EBain)! Definitely anything like this is on my #mswl for this fall! Historical with a magical twist? Yes, please!

The practical magic of Joan Aiken, the greatest children’s writer you’ve likely never read: nyer.cm/uffQewY pic.twitter.com/CuA7a9E260

One of my favorite books as a child was NIGHT FALL, by Joan Aiken. I read it over and again.

I love thrilling stories of suspense about secret pasts and repressed memories. #MSWL
