A mystery/thriller with a speculative element built into the premise rather than used to explain things at the end (For example, Wrong Place, Wrong Time) #MSWL

I would love a mystery/crime/psychological thriller set in Shanghai, Mumbai or another densely populated city besides NYC and London (not opposed to novels set in NYC/London or somewhere less densely populated, but I am also very much on the hunt for settings beyond that). #MSWL

I am particularly on the hunt for horror-comedy, even something a bit campy (Patricia Wants to Cuddle, Bless Your Heart). Same goes for humor in mystery/psychological thrillers (Dial A for Auntie, Finlay Donovan, etc). Would be very open to a mash-up of a funny horror amateur-sleuth too #MSWL

Happy #MSWL day!! My wishlist is attached, but here is what I’m looking for: adult romantasy, horror, and thrillers with gorgeous voice, well-paced action, and characters that are flawed and real. Please use QueryTracker only to submit!

I’m a big David Cronenberg girlie, so I’m always on the lookout for body horror and/or weird psychosexual horror. Gimme that freaky shit ala CRASH, THE CELL, or HELLRAISER and POSSESSION. I’m also down for thrillers ala BASIC INSTINCT #MSWL

I’m always looking for a great voice! Particularly looking for fantasy / romantasy, paranormal, mystery, thriller…and always happy to be surprised! #MSWL

I’m always looking for a great voice! Particularly looking for fantasy / romantasy, paranormal, mystery, thriller…and always happy to be surprised! #MSWL

I love all manner of mysteries: literary suspense, noir, historical, psychological thrillers, cozies, etc. #MSWL

Mystery / suspense / thrillers are always on my #MSWL . I love immersive settings that drive the plot and psychological stories that employ well-worn tropes in new and interesting ways.

Some perennial favorites: Liz Moore, S. A. Cosby, Tana French, Mary Kubica, Ashley Elston, Kimi Cunningham Grant

#mswl and in either YA or adult, some of my conceptual 'white whales' include:

Afrofuturism in the vein of Octavia Butler or Rivers Solomon

Zany, (anti-)historical fiction, like My Lady Jane or Glorious Exploits

Anything centered around the 2010s YouTube vlogger era

A K-pop sasaeng thriller (!!)

#mswl in YA fiction, i'd love:

Historical fiction set outside the US/Western Europe.

Scholarship kids at old-money schools.

Bubblegum thrillers and queer horror.

2010s-style dystopias with marginalized teens at the forefront.

Animated Barbie movie vibes (bonus points for fairies or mermaids).

I'm participating in #MSWL day! I love crime, mystery, thrillers, a bit of horror, a bit of literary, bookclub, and True crime!

#MSWL send me locked room and closed circle mysteries, bonus points for fun settings like theaters, trains, weddings, etc! I love thrillers of all kinds, I’m looking for toxic relationships and romantic elements that amplify the tension and mess. I love mess

Happy #MSWL Day!

For mystery I like cozy or quirky, think Knives Out. But also dark and with thriller elements. I prefer amateur sleuths and locked door, meaning a smaller closed off set of suspects. Smart stories where the mystery and characters are both fully developed. #MSWL

I would love some mysteries and/or thrillers with twists that will leave me breathless (BUT they have to make sense!) I ask for a synopsis and I expect spoilers because I LOVE to see the dominoes being set up on the page! #MSWL

I've said it once and I'll say it again, I'm really wanting some propulsive feminist thrillers! Women supporting women! Taking down the patriarchy kind of stories! #MSWL
