RIP

Makes me want to go reread Howl's Moving Castle.

It's shaping up to be another bad year as far as losing people who have been cultural fixtures since my childhood.

Very sad. My eldest kiddo was a big fan of hers in his growing up years. :(

Very sad! I never read Howl's Moving Castle but I absolutely LOVED the Chronicles of Chrestomanci...

I know--I feel like I've been sucker-punched. DWJ is just my favorite.

Very agreed. Katherine Paterson had better be eating an apple every day.
