Summary: A highly recommended novel
Review: Reading Gone With The Wind is indeed an experience. It is able to change the opinion on romance stories for someone who does not like to read romance, it made me unable to put down the book even though I was busy.The story basically tells how the beautiful Southern belle Scarlett O Hara hardened during the American Civil War and her ruthless ways of making money even it means to marry someone whom she did not love as well as engaging the convicts to run the mills. The story also talks about the unusual love between Scarlett and Rhett Butler whom Scarlett hated intially and also the patriotism of the American Southerners. One could feel the different emotions of Human when reading the story such as jealousy, anger, honour between people and the country, love and so on. It is one unforgettable reading experience and Margaret Mitchell is indeed a talented writer whom I should say that it was regrettable that she was not the one who was writing the sequel to this story. Gone With The Wind is a highly recommended story.

Summary: Worst book ever.
Review: This book has permanently damaged my brain cells. If you are smart, don't read it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!!
Review: I loved the book and I am currently reading 'Scarlett' to see if Scarlett does indeed get her man... I enjoyed reading all about the Civil War and the terrible effects it had on the Southern people. I thought Scarlett, Rhett and Mammy were fantastic characters - although I must admit I did, occassionally, feel like banging Scarlett and Rhett's heads together!! I couldn't stand Ashley - what a wuss!! I particularly liked Melanie, she seems like such a weak little goodie good two shoes but, in fact, she is actually a very strong, courageous woman and the truest friend you could ever have. A wonderful novel - I can see why it is a classic!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I ENJOYED THIS BOOK SO MUCH I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN .
Review: I FOUND THIS BOOK TO BE VERY HARD TO BE PUT DOWN. AS SOON AS I BEGAN TO READ I WAS LOST INTO A WORLD THAT NO LONGER EXISTS. IN MY MIND I SAW WHAT SCARLET SAW AND FELT. THIS BOOK IS WELL WORTH THE TIME AND EFFORT. IT MAY SEEM LIKE A LONG BOOK BUT BY TIME THE WAR BEGINS YOU DON'T REALIZE THE BOOK IS ALMOST OVER. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO EVERYONE. I LOVE THE BOOK EVEN MORE THAN THE MOVIE. SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? BUY YOUR COPY ALREADY.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW
Review: I first saw the movie, and I loved it, so I decided to read the book. I found that the book had so much more depth than the movie which I had already thought breath-taking. Scarlett is someone we can all relate to, yet hopefully not too closely. It is always difficult to stick with a book that is sooo long, but Gone with the Wind was one that wasn't a problem. I loved how Scarlett realized that she loved Rhett because I think that many people overlook their true loves for a lust object that would never make them happy. The book was amazing because it was so beautifully polished and taught many valuable life lessons. I would recommend it to anyone!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Unforgettable...
Review: This is the greatest story ever written. It is not just the love story of Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara, but it is the saga of Scarlett's life, and how she blossoms from young sixteen-year-old to a strong willed woman. It will leave you breathless.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MUCH better than the movie, but in a differnt way
Review: we all love the movie with the leery Clark Gable and the fiery Vivien Leigh- but the novel is much, much more. With this classic, you find yourself bonding with Scarlet- hating her for her obstinate obsessions and agreeing with her basic desires. Melonie Hamilton isn't quite as serene as the movie, but she is just as goodie-goodie. Rhett Butler is good. I'm a high school student, and I read Gone with the Wind in the sixth grade. it was fabulous and everyone should be exposed to the all-too human Scarlet O'Hara.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN!!!
Review: This book is a touching romance that will make you laugh, cry, and feel moved. The characters are memorible and will live on with you forever. If you loved the movie, read this book. It is 10 times better.This book will change youre life forever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book ever!
Review: Gone With the Wind is one of the best books ever written! It teaches a wonderful lesson. No matter what happens, there is going to be a tomarrow, and you shouldn't give up hope! Scarlett lost everything, but she was still strong and she still had hope. Margaret Mitchell is a wonderful writer. Scarlett and Rhett and her other timeless charactors are so real to me and to millions of people. Only a great book could have such an impact on America and the world that GWTW has!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You'll develop a whole new rating standard for books.
Review: This is one of the best books I have ever read. If you don't enjoy it, there is something mentally wrong with you! (Just kidding-sort of) I can understand how it could be a challenging book, it IS over 1,000 pages long, however it's worth it. I knew a girl with a learning disability that caused her to read at a very slow rate, therefore giving her a genuine hatred of books. Someone gave her a copy of Gone with the Wind, and though she started it grudgingly, she couldn't put it down, and believe me, she read through that book faster then..well, (stick analogy here) it's a wonderful book! It gives you a true understanding of the south. That's the way it really was. Tara forever.
