Rating: Summary: Great Book Must Read Review: Gone With the Wind is a great book that gives lots of descriptive detail, it as if you are there in the story. The book puts the movie to shame. I read the book before seeing the movie and I am glad I did. With as much detail that is in the book it is hard to make any kind of movie from it. The book story line is set during the Civil War. Placing the story during the Civil War makes the action and adventure seeker want to read the book. Although the book takes about war a lot there are several love triangles in the book. Having these love triangles in the story keeps the tension in the story and makes the read wonder who will be with who next. Having the story take place during this time brings a sense of realism to the book and makes the reader feel for the characters during this time. The book is also set in the point of view of the south. Having the book take place in the south is different and makes the reader realize why the war was being fought. This is a very fun book to read and I would recommend it anyone.

Rating: Summary: A fantastic read, I couldn't put it down! Review: This book was so good my friends are all reading it! I told every one of my friends about it, that's how good it was! It took me 4 days to read it, because i stayed up all night long just to finish it. The passion in this book made my spine tingle, and my heart beat faster than it has in a while! Anyone who reads it will find it one of the best books you'll ever find.
Rating: Summary: Amazing Review: This is the most incredible story I have ever read the twists and turns drag you along. If you have seen the movie and hate Scarlett read the book. She has a more rounded character in the book. You see her reasons for doing what she does. I hate to reread books but I know that I will reread this book 100 times.
Rating: Summary: The Best Book I have ever read in my life Review: I was recommended this book by my cousin and though what the heck, I'll give it a chance. When I fist opened it I was hooked. Its the most amazing book ever. Margerett Mitchell writes things in a way most authors don't. She is very descriptive and tells you details people think may not be nteresting but actually are and make you feel as if you are in the book. I bresthed this book for 8 days until I finished it and then ammediatly went for the sequel. You have to read this book. If you don't you are missing out on one of the best peices of literature and experiences of history. This books draws you in to its own little world and civilization and you see how people's mind worked in the 1800's and how they thought of xlavery. This is the civil war by a southerners point of veiw that actually has you cherring them on, cursing the yankees for ruining their way of life.Scarlett was the most real charecter I have ever read about. Every choice she made, good or bad, you saw through her eyes how logical her decision was. She was spoiled and did things only for herself yet you can't help loving her anyways. And Rett was the perfect man for this love story. They are so alike and so different. This is the best book ever. I mean it. I've read it so many times that I've lost count so READ IT!!!!

Rating: Summary: Gone With the Wind Review: This is an incredible book. The story is enthralling, the grammar superb... whether you like adventure, romance, or historical fiction, this is the book for you! And the price is a bargain!
Rating: Summary: You have got to read it !!!! Review: Gone With The Wind is the best book I have ever read. I like it because of the setting{I like the old time books}and the characters. I also like it because it is very long and keeps my interest, which is very hard to do. So I think it is a good book to read.
Rating: Summary: Amazing Review: This is an great book. The character interaction, the historical sweep, everything. If you love, or even like, the movie, you should definitely read this book. There are so many things, even characters, in the book that were left out of the movie, the book fleshes everything out. I absolutely recommend this book!
Rating: Summary: Good Writing Lousy History Review: GONE WITH THE WIND is a book that deserved to win the Pulitzer prize for its well developed Characters and fine writing but PLEASE don't buy it as history. I see no reason to call the Atlanta citizens "rare courage" unless you mean half baked! The slaves -- yes for what they endured. The Union troops (Black and White) fighting to preserve the Union IN FREEDOM and President Lincoln who went through hell for the nation but NOT the Confederates who were only seeking their own advantage and trying to tear our nation apart to establish a slave empire. Sorry but facts are facts.
