My most sincerest and heartfelt condolences go to Miss Collins family. My husband passed away in January of this year and Miss Collins was his top favorite author. Her passing is doubly difficult for me because I feel another piece of him has gone with her passing. I hope that they get to meet and exchange smiles.
Rest In Peace Ms.Collins. My thoughts go out to her Family. I'm a second Generation fan. I feel in love with her stories at 15. My mom loved Her books and gave them to me to love. She was very Dearly loved by her family, friends and fans. She will be missed by all.
Rest in peace, Ms Collins, thank you for everything. You were true inspiration, since I discovered your books when I was 12.
So very, very said. Rest in Peace, Jackie. You gave me so much great stuff to read. You rest now. Peace.
You will truly be missed...but you will live on in your books...especially the Santangelo family!!! RIP!!!
Reading Jackie's books….what a great escape… miss her
When I was 13 years old and I would be grounded for something, my mom would take away my TV and stereo. I was fine because I loved to read. However, I did not read teenage stuff like Sweet Valley High. I read VC Andrews and Jackie Collins. Jackie Collins novels were better than any TV soap, including her sister's show Dynasty. I continued to read Jackie Collins throughout my teen years to my adult years. Her novels were pure escapism and "trash" but damn they were good. As a fat nerd who preferred to read than to go out and play with bullies, Jackie Collins was one of the authors who gave me a great escape. Rest in peace Ms. Collins, you are one of the best.

RIP Jackie. There won't be another one like you.
What a loss to the book world, she will be missed but never forgotten.
Thank you, Jackie Collins, for taking me into worlds that I would never have found my way into, tickling my imagination beyond all expectations, and making my mom gasp in comedic horror when she read a few pages of the books I was absorbed in starting at the ripe age of 15....what delicious fun you have brought me! You will be missed.
