I'm heartbroken and deeply disappointed, but I'm also trying to hold onto my very real gratitude."

She added: "Most authors never get to see their work adapted. Many who do end up regretting the experience. I'm one of the lucky few who can look at an adaptation with pride and tremendous joy. I am so grateful to our writers, our crew, and our extraordinary cast who are not just wildly talented, but genuinely good people."

She went on to say: "Most of all I want to saw how grateful I am to the folks reading this – whether you found your way to the books first or discovered them through the show. "

She continued: "The Grishaverse is a better place because of you and I am so thankful for every tweet, post, comment, review, artwork, fic, tattoo and cosplay that helped to make all of this possible.

She concluded her post: "We're book people and that means we never stop imagining that magic can be made real. You are proof of that. Now, I'm going to go have a cry, and maybe a drink, and then see where the story takes us next."
