Looking forSuzy Evans is a literary agent, attorney, author, and founder of Suzy Evans Literary Agency. In adult books she is looking for serious nonfiction, especially historians moving from academic to trade audiences and journalists with unique and significant things to say; smart parenting books with useful original hooks; food, health, wellness, sports with crossover appeal, self-help by experts with established platforms, riveting memoir, science and nature, pop culture, big idea books about controversial issues, small quirky books that surprise her, legal thrillers, and timely important books by and about smart, strong women. In children's books she loves middle grade and seeks lively engaging nonfiction, wacky or hilarious commercial MG fiction with series potential, graphic novels that bring history, literature, and historical figures to life, coming-of-age MG, YA fiction tackling difficult issues boldly, sweet lyrical picture books, contemporary MG/YA exploring diversity, and high-concept thrillers with film potential.
