Alright #RevPit fam, I'm sorry for the wait! But guess what? My first #10Queries will be tomorrow at 3pm ET! Is it to spread out the 10queries? Is it because I was slow going through my subs? Is it because I like to keep you in suspense and I'm evil? No one can know for certain! See you then!
2026 RevPit. Join Carly Hayward on April 8th & 10th at 3pm (ET) for #10Queries

Would you read a book about a poisonous girl, a haunted estate, and the man who loves her so much he forgets who he is? Rappaccini’s Daughter meets Crimson Peak, with blood-fed roses and a slow descent into madness. #bluepit📖 #Q #NA #H #R
A romantic and eerie mood board collage for A Poison So Divine. Elements include a vintage-style plaque that reads: “Not every monster wants to hurt you,” a woman in a white dress reaching upward, a close-up of fingers penetrating a flower, a Greco-Roman statue partially buried in grass, and a man in an open white shirt clutching a necklace. Overlaid text reads: “the things I would do to you” and “if I could only touch you.” The background is textured with vintage paper, florals, and alchemical bottles.

A troublemaker chosen by the spirits breaks an ancient tradition to keep her best friend (not her crush, obviously) by her side, resulting in deadly–and possibly apocalyptic–consequences #BluePit📖 #Q #F #LGBT #ND #TR #OV #agentguide #agentsguide
Text: an agent’s guide to WHEN THE MAGPIE FLIES by M. H. Wottenmoss. 75k queer fantasy, adult/upper YA, series potential
Light blue-gray black ground with a flock of birdsPitch:
In a realm overgrown with wild spiritwoods, humanity’s only protection is the Conduits. Newly-chosen Conduit and incurable troublemaker Magpie of Lornwhen has everything she’s ever wanted at her fingertips. All she has to do is complete her journey of ascension through the spiritwoods, and then she’ll live the privileged life of one of humanity’s beloved defenders. She’ll never have to worry about struggling to survive again.

But Magpie has never been good at doing what she’s told, and when she breaks an ancient tradition, the spirits start killing off the fledgling Conduits—and it seems like it’s her fault. Besieged on all sides by threats from humans and spirits alike, Magpie is faced with an impossible choice: abandon her dreams, or risk losing her best friend forever.

But the wheels of fate have been set in motion, and it may be too late to save themselves—a ravenous darkness looms in the sky, and it's been waiting a long time for humankind’s defenses to waver.
Excerpt:
You couldn’t always see the Shadow in the sky; most of the time it was a tiny spot of darkness marring the daytime sky like an inverse star. It wasn’t something you could set your clock or your compass to, either. It changed size and shape and location with no clear pattern.

The hedgemages liked to try and divine some sort of meaning from it, which was a bit dumb in Mag’s opinion. The Shadow was what it was. Sometimes it was bigger. Sometimes it was smaller.

Sometimes it swallowed the entire sky.

Mag didn’t mind, really. It was usually a great excuse to take a nap. Unfortunately, sitting on a shallow ledge twelve stories high wasn't really a good place for that. It was only marginally worse than napping on top of the giant mushrooms in the spiritwoods, and Mag… would not admit to doing that anywhere Calla might overhear.A line-drawing scene of forested mountains and giant colorful mushrooms, with a dark shadow in the sky and a bird flying toward it. 

Featuring text:
-monstrous spirits
-mildly haunted forest
-giant mushrooms
-ill advised rituals
-slow burn sapphic romance
-autism rep
-introspective, hopeful, and fun
-a Shadow in the sky that occasionally swallows the sun
-original music composed by the author

Text: Niozene has never been good enough. 

As daughter and crown heir to the Mother, a living goddess and ruler of her country, perfection is the only standard she’s ever known. Yet, despite her flawless scholar’s education and a polished career as a ranger, Niozene has failed to convince the Mother to look past her greatest flaw—she lacks the holy power to control the minds of others that ordains her family as living gods with divine right to rule. 

When a shape-changing assassin nearly kills the Mother on Niozene’s watch, she is stripped of her titles and given an ultimatum: return with the assassin’s head, or face excommunication from both her homeland and the afterlife. Desperate, she accepts the task as a final chance to prove herself and show the Mother she deserves a place as her daughter. 

Allowed only the help of Sonsan, a surly tracker and criminal also facing excommunication, Niozene dreads that she may have lost her chance at redemption before she has even left home. But when Sonsan reveals that he shares the same strange shape-changing power as the assassin, Niozene realizes his assignment to accompany her is more than coincidence. As they track the assassin deep into a forbidden land, confronting demons, ancient magic, and the ghosts that haunt their dreams and blood, they must uncover the truth behind their quest—and the buried history neither knew they shared—if they wish to live to see their promised redemption.

BEFORE I DO x MAD ABOUT YOU Fiona is a daddy’s girl who loved hockey, but after his death she can’t even look at her skates. It will take a chance meeting with a painter and fellow hockey fan to help her revive her love of hockey and fully mourn her biggest fan’s death. #Bluepit📖 #Bluepit #A #R #Q
Finding Fiona: An agent guide by Sara WilkinsonThe Pitch: Fiona Ivanov is a daddy’s girl who loved hockey. Loved playing, loved watching her pro dad play, loved watching their favorite team with him at her side. But after his death in a drunk driving accident, she pushes that love down and fills the void with an increasingly discordant relationship. A chance meeting with a fellow fan and painter, Paul, rekindles her love of the game and helps her reconnect with her late dad while she helps him embrace his artistic talent and reconnect with his living father.The Particulars: Contemporary Romance: 84,000 words. Troupes: Impossible romance and Stranger-to-Friends-to-Lovers. Inspired by: Katy Perry's Not like the Movies. Comps: Before I Do, Mad About You, Something from Tiffany's.The Passage:  “Yes, you.” Fiona glanced up at Paul but avoided his eyes. “What the hell is your deal? You invite me home like a stray cat. Fill me with cocoa and memories. Then toss me out without warning and ignore me for days. Then show up at the bar and act like I’m not even there.” A ragged breath escaped her lips as her chest collapsed against her spine. 
  Paul knelt in front of her. His cheeks deflated as he slowly exhaled. “I’m attracted to you. More than I have any right to be. When Jonathon called, I realized this, us, was impossible. Pushing you away seemed like the best option. But then tonight, when you looked so upset, it…” Paul reached over and lifted her chin with his forefinger. “I’d rather have you in my life than not. Even if that means being stuck in the friend zone.”

1972 is a rough year for intelligence officer Eddie Fletcher, and it’s only January.

First he discovers the Cold War is really about time travel, then he’s framed for the UK’s role in a temporal disaster.

Sealing a lethal time rift is the only way to clear his name - much easier said than done when he’s being hunted by the British government.

Then there's a Russian spy on a mission so vital he’s travelled from 1997 to complete it.

First page:

His coat smelled of Hermès Caleche, a heady reminder of his last embrace with Friede. She was the reason he'd come to this forgotten place tonight, but he couldn't be distracted by her. Taking his eye off the ball would get him killed.

Edmund Fletcher's attention snapped into focus as he forced his lover from his mind. He padded through the disused sewer, catching the occasional whiff of human effluent still lingering in the brickwork, his penlight illuminating a narrow arched tunnel stretching ahead into darkness. Water trickled down the walls to form black, glistening pools on the floor and he shivered, quickening his pace. It was always cold so far below ground, heavy snow in the streets above had lowered the temperature further.

He'd used this labyrinthine system often enough to know the layout by heart. He was directly below the Berlin wall now, Soviet territory lay only thirty feet ahead. While he held East German security services in the highest esteem, after four years in the smuggling business he knew how to stay ahead of them.

Book vibes are all about the feel of the writing, setting, and story. 

The Blue Blood Series by Melissa de la Cruz Is used to represent the wealthy elite vampires living in New York, the fish out of water trope, dark secrets, and others.

The Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice is used to represent young vampires rebelling against old rules and customs. Travel and setting also play a role. A plot point was inspired by the novel. 

Yakuza, Japan’s Criminal Underworld by David Kaplan and Alec Dubro, is used to represent some of the vampire rivals business practices. It plays a role in the series arch.
