It’s been a busy end to the year, but I’m proud to have had 4 amazing titles I can announce acquired in 2025!

With the change of seasons it's time for season clean-up which includes my queries! I'll be closing my query manager for the month of September starting at the end of this week to give proper consideration for those patiently waiting for a response.

Excited to be participating in #QueerPit today as an agent! If I ♥️ your post, go to the #MSWL link on my profile and feel free to query me if you think we could be a match!

Niche #MSWL desire would be a blend of family-drama and Scooby-Doo antics/adventure with a hunt for cryptids. The search for chupacabra or moth-man while dealing with siblings relationships? Send my way!

Only 5 books left until I’ve caught up with my physical TBR! Then I can treat myself with another trip to the bookstore.
