I just saw the AP story about her death. I don't know when it actually came out, but she died last Saturday.

Are there any other discussions on AW about this?

I enjoyed her Cat Who books quite a lot when I was younger. She will be missed!

[gothicangel]

I've never read any of her titles, but when I worked in a bookshop her books were always good sellers.

Very sad news.

Here's our Remembrances (http://www.absolutewrite.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=187) forum. No thread on her as yet. I'll port this up there.

Aw, dang. I loved her Cat Who books.

[seaaircarol]

Oh, that's too bad. I think she must have been quite ill, because her latest book was cancelled.

[Little1]

Oh no :( I really enjoyed her tales. She will be missed. RIP Lilian

But she'll be reunited with her Kokos that went before, IMHB.

(The day she died, I'd started rereading her work with book #1.)

I was on holiday and hadn't heard. Read her Cat Who books when I was younger...I'll have to reread one in her honor. I remember the books as very charming reads.

My son and I will miss her a lot. We loved the 'Cat Whos'

I used to go through "Pick Axe" on the way up North.

RIP Lillian.

Adorable tales. She will be missed with affection from fans.

[Keyan]

She gave a lot of pleasure to a lot of people. Me among them. RIP.
