This post is dedicated to one of the best writers I have come across. Anne you are a star. :)
Before I was introduced to Anne's stories J.D.Robb was my favorite Author. She was the only one who could engage my emotions to such an extent I would cry, laugh, smile, feel intense love, hatred, dread etc etc. Eve and Roarke and the gang are my favorite characters and I loved them to bits. I hated the villains and those responsible for Eve and Roarke's childhood and yet these two stars survived and found love and comfort in each other.
Then I started reading chains and Anne you have done exactly was Robb has done to me... You have me hooked to your writing and there are days I dread thinking what happens when the story ends. We are at the 134th chapter of the chains series and you have made me laugh, cry, feel hope, despair, love, hate, and violent to some degree. I have come to a point where I question my own judgement of characters. I love Aman who is a constant in the series. I love the journey Eva and Arnav have gone through, I love Anumita this strong woman who went through so much and still came out to be a star I love Payal and Akaash because even though there are cracks they will stick by each other. Nk and anjali are brilliant in their relationship with each other they remind me of myself and my cousins and the close relationship we share.
I got to a point where I hated Ajit, Shashi and Richard to the extent that i would shoot them on sight. That was the amount of hatred I felt for them and still do. Monsters like them should not exist in this world but they do and they get away with the things they do.
Now its on to Khushi... This was a character I loved i had hoped she would become a strong woman. I had hopes that she would fight her demons and become a woman who would be as strong as anumita, eva and payal. Today I felt my heart shatter to realize that this young lady is beyond all help. I feel despair that i loved a character who could do something so inhumane. However even after she has done what she has I still as a human feel for her. Because of her I have been reading into denial and escapist tendencies.
Anne your writing has me knots and because it is reality i feel dread. my nights are sleepless thinking of what will happen and even though in my bubble I still believe in happy endings for everyone I know you give us a dose of reality that does not have happy endings for everyone.
From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you for bringing the chain series to me and letting me be one of those few people who is privileged to read it. This post is from the bottom of my heart. I don't think I have the write words to show my gratitude and appreciation for your writing. All I can do is pray that you continue to write such beautiful, complex, engaging and mind boggling stories. Anne you truely are a star and today I can proudly tell you that you share that #1 spot with J.D. Robb in my favorite Authors list.
Thank you

Hey. I don't know you, but I love you for this. She really is a brilliant woman, and a wonderful author. I feel like I need to go find new words to describe her genius!
I love her, even though she made me a certifiable nut-case. LOL!
I agree totally even though I have read only 3 chapaters of COS in IF. brilliant..and I read 3 years also.....I could not get access to her blog :-( want to desperately read COS..
This is awesome! Anne, you really do have a way with words and I know I've said this a few times, but not every writer can give me goosebumps and those misty eyes.. and you do with so much ease :D
Love your work and I hope that you continue :)
I started reading your work with 3YL and am glad to have done so! xxx
You are so right in saying that she made it to your number one spot in favorite Authors list.
I have a lot of favorite authors, including Jeffrey Archer, Ayn Rand, and now that list undoubtedly includes her. And thats why I do want to see her on a bestseller list like my all other favorites, and hopefully that will happen soon. God Bless Her!
She is brilliant, needless to say. And she is a wonderful woman, which shows in her writing. She has a way to engage users in her stories, she makes me feel what I thought I never had in me (the crazy murderous rage to kill Richard) because I was quite calm a person.
Thank you to make a post dedicated to her, it just shows how much admiration she has gained from all of us overtime.
Much Love,

I'm not really good with words and I always have hard time expressing my true and deep emotions in words. There were many times when I thought about telling Anne, how much I love her, how much I admire and respect her writing but I just can't come up with the right words. Everything you wrote for her is really beautiful.
Anne, all I want to say is I really , really , really love you for giving us the chain's story. I have read some novels and books but I've never came across anything so far that touched my heart as deep as chains did. I love your characters in the story esp A and E. I laugh when they laugh, I smile when they smile, I cry with and for them when they go through so much pain. They have become an integral part of my life.
Eva- she will always be my inspiration in life to fight all the demons. Her, Anumita and Payal taught me to never give up, to stay strong and to never let your soul break no matter how cruel the world is. Eva will always hold a special place in my heart. I know I have never met her but I feel like I have known her forever through your story. When I read the latest chapter of chains yesterday, for a long time I kept wishing someone to come and tell me that whatever I read was just a nightmare. I really wanted it to be a bad dream, I was at loss, I felt like I lost someone very near and dear to me. And that spokes the volume of the power you have got in your writing. You are a star Anne, a brilliant one.
I have never hated anyone in my life as much as I hate Ajit, Shashi, Richard and Khushi. I never thought I can ever hate someone so much that I would want to see them dead. But I literally felt like killing Richard with my own hands and then came khushi, I hate her, I hate her and I hate her. I hate her so much that I feel no humanity towards her and I just can't tolerate that she is still alive. Bloody hell.
I am still trying to figure out how people bear and live with so much pain and I can understand what you must have gone through while writing that chapter. I bow down to you for that. You are a rock. If god grants me one wish, then there is only thing that I would wish for and that is to take all the pain away from A and E and bless them with the happy ending they deserve.
This story, Arnav, Eva, Anumita and Payal will always be close to me and you will always remain my ultimate star Anne. I can never thank you enough for this. I love you .
And also thank you KC294 for this dedication to Anne :)))
With love, Araina :)
Thanks for this. Anne truly deserves this. Everyone is a big fan of hers. And you have just penned everyone's feelings so beautifully in words..:)
