Anyone else a fan?

I've been really getting into her books lately, I read "Chain of Hearts" a few years ago and thought it was boring, but I re-read it recently and loved it.
And now I'm reading "Queen Cat, Carmel and St Jude Get a Life", which I'malso really enjoying.

They're all sort of the usual teenage novels about coping with life/change/problems and whatnot, but what I like about them is really her characters, none of them are the usual cliches or stereotypes that most books have, they all have depth and flaws that make them seem more real.
