    This list demoralized me at the start. I haven’t given Gail much thought in years. But I assumed that she was still writing novels. I was planning to rediscover her work one of these days once she had accumulated a significant collection of new books in her bibliography.

    My goal was to binge them all over the next few months. However, initially, it looked like she hadn’t published anything new since 2016, leaving me with just three books to read.

    But it looks like I was wrong. Her most recent release came out in 2021, which is encouraging. I was worried that her interest in writing had faded.
