A Bittersweet Goodbye.Francine Pascal, a tale of millennial YA literature, has passed away at the age of 92.

Stine (where my Anxiety Street girlies at?) and also Francine Pascal's Dessert Lowland High series, which was what you graduated to checking out when you decided you were extremely old to accept that you still loved The Baby-Sitters Club.
