I enjoy all manner of horror novels: psychological horror, cosmic horror, folk horror, horror-romance, horror-comedy, ghosts, etc. #MSWL

First up on my #MSWL is a postapocalyptic romance where the romance is just as important to the stakes as the end of the world itself. Bonus points for dark / black humor!

Am also looking for dark romance / horror romance more broadly, but nothing w/ stalker vibes or questionable consent for me.

Fated Hearts (Chinese Drama), Love in Nirvana (Chinese Drama). On the other hand, I really love romance that is soft, adoring, gentle, steady, reliable, loyal, parallel, and passionate. So, like A Walk to Remember, Record of Youth (korean Drama), or The Rational Life (Chinese Drama),+

I’d love fiction with magical realism, historical fiction, contemporary fantasy, romance/romcoms, epic/high fantasy, LitRPG, mystery, or sci‑fi. Blend them? Great. Fantasy + mystery? Great. Magical realism + historical? Great. Set in Latin America, Africa, Asia, or about diaspora lives? Great #MSWL

My heart will always be with any kind of fantasy! All subgenres but I've really been feeling cozy adjacent lately; think cozy but with higher stakes. I'm not looking for pure examples of romantasy with tons of tropes, but I do want romance 1/2 #MSWL

#mswl it would be fun to see a labor organizing romance. maybe they have a professional rivalry at different companies but they connect while trying to unionize their respective workplaces. maybe something else! maybe labor rights in a fantasy setting!

I'd like to see quirky horror and more serious horror. Think social commentary rather than slasher. Horror with romance--though everyone is looking for that. Feminist horror. Folk lore horror. #MSWL

In YA, I'd love to see comtemporary paranormal romances and mysteries from fresh, underrepresented perspectives à la CEMETERY BOYS, IF I HAVE TO BE HAUNTED, and THESE DEADLY PROPHECIES. Please give me vampires, witches, ghosts, zombies, etc. especially from a unique cultural lens! #MSWL

I'd love to see more cozy fantasy and science fiction with romance. Sweet or medium spicy is good for me. I tend to prefer fantasy-forward rather than romance-forward so sightly more emphasis on the fantasy plot. #MSWL

#MSWL day

1) Gayer, swoonier romance (gay, here, meaning any LGBTQ+ pairing that leans into the queerness of it)

2) Small stories with BIG personal stakes (e.g. TJ Klune esque), preferably with magic but not required if romance

#MSWL I desperately want a spicy dystopian romance post climate apocalypse. Think "The 100" but I want the stories of those left on the ground.

Romance. I love romances and would love to see more (especially queer) romances in my inbox. YES, it has to end in a HEA or HFN--otherwise it's NOT a romance.
Would also love to see things that aren't enemies to lovers. Still open to it just would love to mix it up a little #MSWL
