I’ve never read any of her books but she wasn’t very old, was she. So sad.

A great loss indeed, though I know she had some health issues. I didn't read the Wolf Hall trilogy but I've read some of her early ones and her biography which I enjoyed.
Now watching a documentary about Wolf Hall on BBC2 tonight, I believe a repeat scheduled following her death.
