I absolutely love Anne McCaffrey's writing. She was such a prolific writer- I feel like I grew up reading and re-reading her books.
Anyone else a fan?

Oh Marly- I hope you like them! She has a great way of making "real" characters. All of her characters- even her most heroic ones had character flaws and in one of the books the protagonist is actually pretty shallow and self-centered for most of the books. But even still- she makes you see their inner self and the character progression is great! She truly was a master. I am so sad that she passed away.
