A saint has gone home. Oh, her books always made me ache with joy. _A Ring of Endless Light_ was my favorite. The first time I read it, at 13, I immediately re-read it because it was that good and I loved it immediately. She will be missed here!
A Ring of Endless Light is my favorite also. Her adult books are wonderful, too. Very few authors are able to use the language as she could.
Well, when I told Shane he said that he thought she had died a long time ago. But, he did decide we needed to re-read her books. I’ve never read them, so I guess I should put them on my list!
I will miss her!
