@DelilahSDawson I’d love to see more brown people! I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a South Asian person on screen or page in Star Wars, other than Riz Ahmed! So a brown girl would be so cool! More mental illness rep would be great too.This is also eternally on my #MSWL for YA and adult sci-fi and fantasy, please. Brown kids in space.

@Lynnette_Novak @JulieShattuck Are you looking for specific genre to read?Seeking: Adult: suspense/thrillers, fantasy, sci-fi, contemporary romance, rom-com, & mysteries. YA: suspense/ thrillers, sci-fi, fantasy, horror, mysteries, historical, & contemporary. MG: Sci-fi, fantasy, contemporary, adventure, mysteries, horror, & humor. #diversity #MSWL
I'm also always, always looking for a good fantasy. It could be Contemporary or High. Could be court intrigue or our world with a twist. The point is, if you've got magic, I'm interested. #MSWL
I'm dying for some science fiction--but I like it a little blendy. Give me a mystery or thriller with a sci-fi twist, give me a dark new world. Give me mechs and cyborgs and unexplored technology. #MSWL
In YA I'm a little pickier. I'm sorry to say that I'm not a great fit for sweet contemporary romance, or contemporary without some other hook. Now, if you've got a twisty thriller, we can talk. #MSWL

Genre-bending, standalone YA spec fic that puts me in the mind of Jane, Unlimited—a book I read over a year ago and still think about on a weekly basis. Bonus points for a sweeping yet claustrophobic setting like Tu Reviens! #mswlOmg, this is my #mswl forever!!
