If you're looking for recommendations, I'd say that Margo Lanagan, Catherynne M. Valente and Kelly Link are three of the most interesting genre writers of the 21st century, irrespective of gender.  Each bring their own unique style to bear: Lanagan's is fiercely feminist, Valente's is surrealistic/fabulist, and Link's is, well, KellyLinkian.  Kelly doesn't have any novels yet, but her About "Two Houses" (Shadow Show: All New Stories in Celebration of Ray Bradbury - 2012) gives evidence that a novel may not be that far off.

Link's Stranger Things Happen is one of the most significant genre collections ever.  But any of her three collections should be eagerly sought after by anyone with a pulse.
