They&#8217;re OK. I got on a bit of a DWJ kick, partly because her stuff is shelved in a part of the library that I was walking through, rather than in a part of the library I had to remember to visit. I generally find it a mistake to read too much of one author in a short time, but then it&#8217;s easier to remember to check for another book when you&#8217;ve just finished one. Harder to think (on my feet at the library) of an author that I like but haven&#8217;t read for three or for months.
