Meg’s new novel, Beautiful Exiles, will be published August 1!
The Race for Paris is the recipient of the David J. Langum, Sr. Prize for American Historical Fiction, Honorary Mention, and The Wednesday Sisters was named one of “25 Essential Best Friend Novels”—along with the likes of The Three Musketeers, Harry Potter, Michael Chabon’s The Mysteries of Pittsburg, Amy Tan’s The Joy Luck Club, and Mary McCarthy’s The Group—in Entertainment Weekly.
