However, I would be interested in retellings from classics not often covered. Some examples I’d love to see retold are Picture of Dorian Grey, Jekyll and Hyde, Faust, Korean/East Asian legends and fables, and Mesopotamian myths. #mswl

I’d love something that echos shows like Everything’s Gonna Be Okay or On My Block, or books such as Pachinko, Darius the Great Is Not Okay, Such a Fun Age, and The Book of Unknown Americans. #mswl

It’s another social-distancing Saturday so I’ve decided to do a thread on some things I’d like to see in my inbox because...why not? Buckle up guys, here comes my #mswl

During this whole time, I’ve been catching up on a ton of K-Drama and I. Am. Obsessed with opposites-attract such as CLoY, My Secret Romance, and Oh My Ghost. I’d love to see something like these featuring POC in my inbox bc I’m not letting go of these feels. #mswl

Was just chatting with @mer_barnes about BILLY ELLIOT and now I'm crying over "Electricity" again. I will say this until I get it, but I desperately want a YA project about a male ballet dancer in HS. What was Billy's life once he got to the academy? #mswl youtube.com/watch?v=muBrh7…

I can't find a tweet for it, but I also really want more dark, twisted suspense/thrillers a la Gillian Flynn, Ruth Ware, Wendy Heard, and Lauren Beukes. If it crosses over into horror, that's great too! #QuarantineMSWL (7/?)
