I didn't read many of her books but through fiction she certainly changed perceptions of how women should be 
No simpering Stepford wives for Jackie....all her heroines were strong feisty women. In 1968 I remember the 'scandal' her first novel caused. It was banned in Australia ...and obviously became a best seller...

I never read fiction, but from what I've seen of her, she seemed a lovely, strong lady, and kept a quiet dignity right til the end re her illness. RIP Jackie x

The only people who knew she had this (for the past 5 years) were her daughters. A strong lady indeed...
