Chelsea Cain and Megan Abbott event

Date/Time:

September 8, 2014 - 7:00pm - 9:00pm

Location:

Strand Bookstore

I'll be at the Strand Bookstore with the fabulous Megan Abbott, author of DARE ME, one of my favorite books of 2012. Megan is so goddamn smart and funny and original and awesome. She has a new novel, THE FEVER, about teenage girls who start experiencing mysterious seizures and freak the fuck out of everyone. We have a lot to say about bad girls. And we're going to say some of it at this event.
