I’m not surprised really. She does waffle on a bit (I say from a place of love).

It’s one novel but it got lengthy. Extremely. (She’s very open, on her blog, about her inability to write short stories or even short novels… most of her novels began life as supposed-to-be-short-stories.) I believe it was her publisher thought who said it had to be published in more than one installment.

I love her nearly completely unfailingly 100% of the time, but I’m a silly fangirl like that.

Was the ending of Deerskin sad and terrible? I must not be remembering it right! Time for a reread of that one.

I had a little trouble getting into Pegasus—it was a bit slow at the beginning. By the end, though, I was really intrigued, and I was very sad at the ending, thinking that she was leaving us with a sad, terrible ending, which would not be unheard of (Deerskin). Imagine my relief when I heard there was a sequel coming out. Whew!

I’ve read Beauty, and Outlaws of Sherwood, which I liked, and Rose Daughter, which drove me up a wall. I’ve got Sunshine on the TBR pile, though (along with Spindle’s End and The Hero and the Crown).

Glad to meet someone else who uses libraries until she’s sure she likes the book! I generally don’t buy them until I’ve read them a few times and absolutely know that there will be times when I want that specific book RIGHT NOW, that I’m going to read and reread it forever.

Yes. Pegasus was all well and good, and she has to give us the sequel now, but WHEN will she give us the rest of Sunshine? Sure, it’s complete as it is–technically, but boy did she leave the door open!
