Fiction Closed

MIDDLE GRADE I am eager to build my middle grade list and on the lookout for lower mg and chapter books too. I'm always interested in high-concept, but I'm really looking for voice and the ability to capture the complex feelings of this age. I would love to visit lush worlds like THE NIGHT GARDENER with characters you can't help but root for a la GHOST, anything filled with heart and hope as in FR GarageBand ONT DESK or that helps kids deal with tough topics like THE REMARKABLE JOURNEY OF COYOTE SUNRISE or THE THING ABOUT JELLYFISH. I'm not a good fit for high fantasy, but I'm open to all else. YOUNG ADULT I absolutely love YA, it's what really drew me to the world of publishing. Again, I'm really drawn to high-concept and commercial young adult works. I'm looking for stories that stay with you long after you finish them like SLAY and THE WILDER GIRLS. Beautiful prose that sweeps you into the world with no looking back like CARAVAL or THE HAZEL WOOD. Books that blend prose and epistolary like SADIE or RULES FOR VANISHING. Stories with standout voice like YOU SHOULD SEE ME IN A CROWN and explore tough topics or deeper truths as in THE GRACE YEAR. I'm always interested in stories where magic is real and hiding in plain sight, books with speculative elements, and mysteries.
