YOUNG ADULT

In YA, I am open to a wide variety of genres. Specifically. I’m looking for:

Romance
-contemporary with a strong hook
-laugh-out-loud romcoms
-speculative twists (timeloops, vampires, magic, ghosts, etc.)

Are vampires in yet? I think I want vampires again. 👀
More in the vein of THE SERPENT AND THE WINGS OF NIGHT #mswl

- anything set in a part of the world different to the US, Canada, or the UK (or, if set in the UK, set in the north of England, northern Ireland, rural spaces, etc)
- fresh, different takes on monster stories (vampires!!!! pls) that explore aspects of humanity

#mswl

I don't see enough queer monster romances or paranormal romances!! where are my vampire boyfriends and trans merpeople and werewolf lesbians? #mswl

vampires in the 90s with all the hazy, summery nostalgia that comes with the pre-digital age. vampires locked away in remote mountain ranges. vampires haunting small villages, but people haunting back. vampires!!!

in honour of IWtV day, a humble #mswl request for lush, gothic, deliciously literary takes on vampires. comp me Woman, Eating or Let the Right One In or Carmilla or Certain Dark Things. the grittier, darker, and more grotesque the better. as we know:

Someone please send me a vampire picture book too? I love this! 🧛🏻‍♂️📖🤞🏼#MSWL

Adult/YA Fantasy: I am aching for cozy fantasy, low stakes feel good stories. Fresh twists on vampires and werewolves are also on my list! Magical food or music, yes please send it! If you can comp a Studio Ghibli title 👀 I also love genre blends like sci fantasy ... 6/

#mswl yes please, esp vamps

Adult/YA Fantasy:

For both here, I really want cozy fantasy. Low stakes 'comfort' reads are huge especially if it's got something to do with food or music! Contemporary and urban fantasies are also great and I love vamps and werewolves! 4/?

#MSWL I'd love a non-Western✨ vampire ✨book.

MG, YA, & Adult all welcome.

For MG: likely adventure/fantasy based w/magic and/or non-Western mythology.

For the rest: fantasy set in a non-Western world w/sharp stakes & a romance.

Could be 1st or 2nd world fantasy.

Angels, Werewolves, Vampires; LBGTQIA+; whimsy and off-the-wall elements; celebrity romance but fiction and not real life celebrities please; your cunty, angry, man-hating bitches; unreliable narrators; villains; Scooby gang; messy characters and relationships; love-triangles

I would really just love some romance with a spec twist in my inbox right now (adult or YA, I'm not picky) -- give me your ghost hunters falling for each other, your vampire crushes, your love spells gone wrong. #MSWL

Actually, not only do I want Spuffy vibes, I would love to see some ADULT vampire romance: give me sex, blood, morally grey (or even totally amoral, done well enough) protagonists, and YEARNING. #mswl

2. Fantasy involving ghosts, witches, etc. Vampires are ok but they need to be human-friendly like ADOW. (I *adore* ADOW!). Historical fantasy like ADDIE LARUE. With historical fiction, I prefer pre-20th century.

I want courtly romantic politics but also vampires. Bridgerton meets Interview with a Vampire. #mswl

Fall is here, and I am excited to find something cozy. In particular, I'd love to read a cozy romantasy set in our world, or maybe a gripping, atmospheric mystery with a fantastic voice. I'm also into gothic stories that feature ghosts/hauntings, vampires, or curses! #mswl

YA
- ROMANTASY, needs no explanation methinks (side note - I’d love to see vampires make a comeback)
-keeps me on the edge of my seat THRILLERS, extra points if it includes a good whodunnit
-psychological or supernatural HORROR, that leaves me going to sleep with the light on

#MSWL Remember the movie Warm Bodies? Well I want that but with Vampires instead of Zombies. Not pining Edward and submissive Bella, give me funny, regretful but also okay with himself vamp meets kick-butt heroine who's his match because she outmatches him.
