I'm so sorry to hear about the death of Jane Yolen. When I invited her to Lehigh U, I introduced her as "The Storyteller." ... "Literature is a textually transmitted disease, normally contracted in childhood.” And for the lucky ones, we never grow out of it. RIP, Jane.

Perfect for readers of Megan Abbott, Tana French, and fans of mysteries where the setting is as captivating as the crime. ... Zig Zag Girl by Ruth Knafo Setton https://t.co/XSPxD7JRxS
