If you like those crazy southern women . . .,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Annunciation (Paperback)
A great book. The first I have read of Gilchrist. I found it strange that I didn't really get attached to any one character and felt anger toward Amanda, the main character for many of the BAD choices she made again and again. If you don't want to know the ending before you read it, don't read the next review . . . she gives it all away!!!A great story, albiet a bit dark.

This review is from: The Annunciation (Paperback)
I had never heard of Ellen Gilchrist but was given a tattered copy of "The Annuciation" by a friend. After the first page I was hooked. The writing is sharp and descriptive and the characters are intriguing. The story begins with the lead character, Amanda, as a little girl and follows her life through middle age as she searches for herself, her child and her passions. There's much to connect with for women and while there were one or two times when I thought things were a little far-fetched, overall it was a great read.

This review is from: The Annunciation (Voices of the South) (Paperback)
I have twenty pages left to the end of the book and I'm savoring every last page. She creates such vivid characters and the story draws you in immeadiately. Great writer and great read.
