Thank you for considering me for your work! I am a Literary Associate at New Leaf representing commercial to upmarket genre fiction for all ages. My taste leans mosty speculative, often rooted in history, subtly romantic, and full of family and heart. Some non-client recent favorites that I'm enjoying lately include NOT QUITE NARWHAL by Jessie Sima, A WISH IN THE DARK by Christina Soontornvat, SMALL FAVORS by Erin A. Craig, THE SALT GROWS HEAVY by Cassandra Khaw, BAD CREE by Jessica Johns, and SHE WHO BECAME THE SUN by Shelley Parker-Chan. For more comprehensive MSWL updates, please find me on socials @sophiamreads!

As you prepare your query, please follow New Leaf's submission guidelines: https://www.newleafliterary.com/submissions/

If you're unable to use Query Manager, please send your query to query@newleafliterary.com with my name in the subject line.

Please do not query multiple agents at New Leaf at the same time. We do share queries internally, but you're always welcome to query another New Leaf agent if eight weeks has passed with no response from the agent you're currently querying (due to the volume of queries, we are unfortunately unable to respond to each one).

Best,
Sophia
