A pair of obituaries to note:


Bestselling UK author Sophie Kinsella, 55, died a few days ago.  She was known for her Shopaholic series of novels.

She had suffered from glioblastoma, which is as bad as it gets for cancer, for the past three years.


Snip:


Kinsella was born in London in 1969, and studied music at New College, Oxford, before switching to philosophy, politics and economics.


She wrote her first novel, The Tennis Party, aged 24 under her married name Madeleine Wickham, while working as a financial journalist.


"My overriding concern was that I didn't write the autobiographical first novel," she told the Guardian in 2012. "I was so, so determined not to write about a 24-year-old journalist.


"It was going to have male characters, and middle-aged people, so I could say, look, I'm not just writing about my life, I'm a real author."
