#MSWL YA w/ main characters who are vivid & compex yet utterly ordinary (read: NOT the Chosen One) but facing extraordinary circumstances.

@beth_phelan I just spent so long trying to remember where I had seen this #mswl---I second this!!!

Adding this to my #MSWL. Agents, send me topical science NF like Mary Roach for teens and/or MG! @runwithskizzers

#MSWL would love to see more contemporary romance with varying heat levels, also YA that makes me swoon or breaks heart.

ICYMI - would love a YA set within the death positive movement. #MSWL

On this #MSWL Monday I'm hunting for contemporary YA with big heart. Think More Happy Than Not or The Spectacular Now...

I think hard #scifi for a #YA audience has untapped potential! #mswl buff.ly/1QKIlX0

Watching LONG WAY ROUND, and desperately wanting a YA road trip book about two girls traveling via motorcycle #MSWL

This for YA/MG, please and thank you. #MSWL #weirdisbest twitter.com/thelithub/stat…

I want a quirky, weird, #YA #fantasy with a hilarious twist. #mswl buff.ly/21Oct8U https://t.co/36pp6A6WeL

I want to #MSWL basically everything that @MagicRealismBot tweets. (For YA/MG. Heck, even PB if done well.) twitter.com/MagicRealismBo…

"A diverse, contemporary YA novel about strong guy friendships. Think Poe and Finn. <3" @ericsmithrocks #MSWL bit.ly/1dbOPj8

Can't stop thinking about The Witch. I'd love a meticulously researched, historically accurate YA ghost/witch story w *intense* dread #mswl

On my #MSWL: Quirky, inventive, heart-wrenching stories in the vein of Karen Russell, Jenny Offill, or Aimee Bender. #A #YA

📷 petejknapp: #MSWL – YA horror or any YA that has strong Halloween vibes (Halloween need not actually... tmblr.co/Z1DsEu23PhAUC

"A girl gang YA! Something like the Pink Ladies or Teddy girls" @kurestinarmada #MSWL bit.ly/1aqPTe4

Also on our #MSWL: diverse graphic novels for YA and MG audiences. See guidelines here: tubooks.submittable.com/submit/48794

The examples in that article are all picture books, but the principle applies to MG & YA as well. #MSWL

So, for example, books for MG & YA that fit what this article is talking about: blog.leeandlow.com/2016/03/08/div… #MSWL

#MSWL time: One big gap on our list is our lack of any books about Muslim main characters (MG or YA).
