I'm still desperately looking for something like THREE HOURS by Rosamund Lupton, both in sense of themes (issues driven suspense) and execution. I just couldn't put that book down and it left me with all kinds of emotions.

Something like that please! #mswl

I’ve been getting a lot of satirical horror/thriller (which I LOVE don’t get me wrong), but I’m also looking for really dark/gritty suspense, someone please scare the daylights outta me #MSWL

After a year at Creative Media Agency, I'm thrilled to open to #queries as an associate agent! I'm looking for:

- Women's fiction
- Romance
- Domestic suspense/thriller
- YA
- Narrative nonfiction & more!

entangledinromance.com/2024/01/12/editor-wish-lists-for-january-2024/

When I reopen to queries, my top 3 #MSWL items will be…

❤️ YA Romantic Fantasy
👀 Suspense / Thrillers - YA & Adult
🌟 Upmarket Book Club Fiction

Keep an eye out for my reopening announcement! In the meantime, you check out my PM profile here:

And here's some extras.

-crime, thrillers and suspense. Either cosy (e.g Over My Dead Body by Maz Evans or Richard Osman-esque), blackly comic (like My Sister, the Serial Killer) or intelligent and inclusive (Gillian Flynn vibes). I also love novels that feature a 'beat the system' narrative

This was part of my #MSWL for 2023 and I am carrying it over to 2024 because I am dying for more thriller/suspense in my inbox!

It's that time of yeay! A very basic one-sheet #MSWL for 2024, but as always: I love to be surprised! Next week when I re-open, you can find my queries at Query Tracker!

My main jam is thrillers, so I’d love to see more in this area. This includes horror (supernatural horror, not slasher horror), mystery, suspense, domestic thriller, psychological, etc. Fast-paced, high tension, high stakes, please! Ghosts & haunted houses are a huge draw for me.
