In her crime fiction, Megan takes the classic sub-genres of crime fiction (such as hardboiled) and gives them a feminine twist. Megan earned her Ph.D. in English and American literature from New York University. She is married to Joshua Gaylord.
Megan Abbott made her debut as a published author in 2002 with the non-fiction book The Street Was Mine. Her debut as a novelist came in 2005 with the novel Die a Little. Below is a list of Megan Abbott’s books in order of when they were originally released:
