Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Anna loves to 'do it' !
Review: Anna loves to 'do it'. Anna 'does it' a lot. Anna 'does it'with a married man. Anna also 'does it' with a much younger man who isvery cute. Anna thinks she's better than everyone else, but only because it's true and she is brutally honest at all times! Anna can't have children. Anna's family is colorful and numerous and they have names like Putty, LeLe and Jimmy John. Anna has so many relatives it's hard for her to interfere with them all, but she tries. Anna's sister Helen is an uptight prune, but when she finds out how much fun it is to 'do it', thanks to Anna, she is transformed into a happy and attractive woman.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Delicious
Review: Don't miss a single Anna book! I just hate that she was "killed off"!

Isn't it about time for Gilchrist to do a Companion? A Gilchristian Companion for the Hand Family, Miss Crystal, Nora Jane, and (last but not least) Rhoda?

Summary: part of a series of good books
Review: Ellen Gilchrist is a talented & really sensitive author. I've been reading her books for years, & my favorite characters are Anna, Rhoda & Olivia. The "Anna Papers" is a book about Anna Hand, a character that comes up again & again in Gilchrist's novels. Anna is an author, a sensitive woman living between extremes- happiness & depression, love & loneliness...I think the whole series is very good -especially "I cannot get you close enough" & "Net of Jewels". But this book is also not a disappointment.

Summary: This is Great Fiction?
Review: Sorry, but I thought this book [wasn't very good],and I will never read another Ellen Gilchrist novel. If I wanted a book full of descriptions of clothes and furnishings, I'd buy a magazine. Felt nothing for the characters,who I thought were all shallow.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This is Great Fiction?
Review: This has always been, and remains, one of my favourite books. Gilchrist knows how to make you believe in her characters, and Anna is one of the most well-written and most interesting characters she has written about, ever. This book made me laugh, cry, and appreciate life in a way only Gilchrist (through Anna) could have done. It's a wondrous book, and one I hope to read over and over again. Anna is unforgettable, and it is a tribute to Ellen Gilchrist that she is.
