I have all her books, and I've always liked them. There is a freshness and humour about her writing which I find very appealing. The stories are good as well, there've always got a very good setting. Her take on how religion can set an entire people askew is very interesting.
However, I won't deny that there is something lacking... I can't quite put my finger on it, but it lacks depth somewhere. It's like diving into a swimming pool and then swimming the lenght of the pool just under the surface, instead of going deeper all the time, like you feel you're doing with a RH book.
Hard to put into words. She's definitely not my favourite author, yet I'll be happy to buy every book she writes.
