Iโm still looking for a feel good contemporary YA rom com with a big commercial hook featuring POC characters a la Jenny Han. Itโs like the great white whale of my career. Someone send it to me now, please. #MSWL

In honor of #rwa18, here are some of the top things on my #MSWL: 1) Die Hard as a romance novel; 2) The Martian as a romance novel; 3) Jurassic Park as a romance novel (non-shifter--gimme scientists in danger!); 4) lumberjacks, and yes I am serious;OMG, yes! Die Hard as a romance novel YES!!! Iโd love all of these as LGBTQ+ #OwnVoices #RomanticSuspense #RomCom #ContempRomance #PNR #MSWL

I know Iโm a month late, but I just watched Set It Up and, holy crap, I have missed rom coms so so so much. It was everything Iโve been missing on screen. Also, female friendships and a kickass female boss? GIVE ME ALL ROM COMS LIKE THISAnd on that note, I need a rom com to represent. Smart characters, little bit of mayhem, romance that makes me swoon, lady friendships, lady bosses, diversity. All things that make me smile and happy. If you have it, please send it! #MSWL

#MSWL an incredibly lush, romantic YA fantasy; novels with "evil boyfriends" (think Damon Salvatore); romantic comedies; millennial focused non-fiction, ripped from the headlines historicals#MSWL would like to amend to "evil loves who are sometimes redemptive" :D

Iโll be coming through queries this week and I REALLY REALLY REALLY NEED a contemporary please. No rich kids, no white suburbia. Forget the standard girl-meets-boy.
I want the mother/daughter dynamic of EMERGENCY CONTACT. A black/POC Kara Thomas. A raunchier-voiced rom-com #mswl
