So. RIP DWJ.
Mar. 26th, 2011 09:24 pmI've been in class all day, and it was a marvelous class, but I'm only now catching up and -- ah, no. Not Diana Wynne Jones!
I never read her work when I was in the nominal target audience; I started reading it as an adult, because I tend to find YA fantasy more interesting, creative, and all-around pleasant to read than I do "adult" fantasy. (I am, in fact, about a third of the way through Enchanted Glass right now, and before that I read The Pinhoe Egg, and before that House of Many Ways.)
Sad now.
