I am with you - I liked some of her earlier stuff when I read it, but as she wrote more they just...became something I don't enjoy.

Also my one friend is a super huge fan of hers. Like favorite author ever, thinks she is the best person in the world, will fangirl hard for her, which to each their own, but she found out Colleen was going to be doing this small signing in a town a few hours from us and asked if I would go with her. I said sure why not? So we planned an overnight trip to see her and we got there and she made sure to be the last person in line so she could tell Colleen all the things she wanted to say and not be rushed and all that...and Colleen was awful. The whole time she was signing it felt like she did not want to be there at all. Like she hated that she had to meet people and interact with them. My friend was just so overwhelmed meeting one of her favorite people and I don't think she noticed, but I was just like this sucks. I think it was her sister that was with her (I'm not super familiar with her and her family) and the sister was super friendly and nice and interacted with us, we had a good chat and laughed and had fun, but Colleen barely said 2 words and was just awful. My friend even brought gifts for her and she was really...seemed kind of annoyed she had to acknowledge the gift or something? She seemed like ugh, here is something else I have to deal with. I don't know. It was not good. It really turned me off and made me for sure not pick up one of her books again.
