Jackie Collins died at 77 of breast cancer.  She has been fighting it for 6 years or so. 

She was one of my favorite authors and she will be missed.

RIP, Ms. Collins.

I'll have to reread the Lucky Santangelo series in your honor.

I just heard the sad news this morning. She had been diagnosed with stage four cancer six years ago. I hadn't heard. Did she keep it secret? She was one tough lady, a prolific writer who knew exactly what her many fans loved to read. R.I.P.

Sad news indeed. You fought the good fight. Rest in peace.

Only read one of her books, but she was a terrific writer.  She will be missed.  Sad for Joan.  Her little sister....

I think she did keep it a secret from what I read on People.com.

Sorry to hear that. I've not ready any of her books, but maybe I will now. Recommendations?

The Lucky Santangelo series:

Chances was the 1st published in 1982 and The Santangelos, is number 10 just released this past June 2015.  Wonderful books.
