Summary: a book for all ages & for all people
Review: When i was reading this book, i thought about it and its characters day and night. I even dreamt about them! Thats how good it is! While reading it, it seems as if you are transported to that era and the characters are there in front of you. It is an immortal novel and people of all ages will continue enjoying it. Even those like me, who are not Americans will enjoy it because it is a novel for all nations. Every nation passes through a revolution or massive change atleast once in its history which turns the structure of its society upside down as shown in this novel. All the emotions portrayed so beautifully in this novel like love, hate, determination, a will to fight and struggle are universal. Without any doubt, this novel is the best that i've ever read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Can it be rated by stars?
Review: I first watched the movie when I'm 14. Just totally obsessed by it and started to read the novel. I'm now 17 and had read the novel 3 times in Chinese and one time in English and watched the movie for 5 times. It is (will be) the best novel I had read... the novel is better than the movie, more better. Dont' read or watch the sequel!! You will disappointed. Scarlet and Rhett only live in Gone With The Wind. When it ask " How do you rate this book?" in this review. I just can't stop laughing. Can it be rated by stars?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: So far the best book I've ever read.
Review: Margret Mitchell uses wonderful descriptions to show a way of life that has long disappeared from time. The characters are fantastic and the conflicts in the book are numerous: Scarlett's love for Ashley, Rhett's love for Scarlett, the plight to salvage a lost cause. I saw the book as more than a love story. It shows the many emotions people go through as they mature and change with the world they are presented with. Gone With the Wind should be a required book for anyone who enjoys this genre. The movie is also good, but it doesn't include everything the book has to offer. I laughed and cried, and even though it's long (around 1,000 pages), I loved every moment, and wished it were longer. (It got really good at the end and then it ended)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW, need i say more?
Review: Mind blowing! The book was amazing!! One of the best experiences of my life was reading it. The movie did not do anything much tho' the casting was superb. The sequel was pathetic, Alexandra Ripley: go boil your head! You're nowhere near the real thing!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Scarlett and Rhett: Best Cat and Mouse Couple Ever
Review: Gone With the Wind is, without a doubt, my one and only obsession. Since reading it at age 10, I have attempted to acquire everything that I have found to be associated with this extrodinary book. I am now 16 and my love for Gone With the Wind is still exceedingly strong. Alexandra Ripley's so-called sequel was good but her Scarlett and Rhett did not suit the originals. Margaret Mitchell was a superb author with a genious for portraying saucy, touch-me-not characters like Scarlett and smooth,arrogant ones like Rhett. Throughout the book Scarlett's insistance that she would always love Ashley and Rhett would never have that privilege perfectly led up to the ending where she finally realizes that she only wanted Ashley because she could not have him. Gone With the Wind is the best book ever written and in my mind that fact will never change.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Frankly my dear I don't give a damn"
Review: This is the best book in the world. If you haven't read it, you have to! This book is so real. You feel for Scarlett and cry with her and laugh with her. It's to hard for me to write in words how wounderful this book is. You have to read it to fell and understand it. If I were you I would drop everything and run to the store and buy, buy, buy it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Gone With the Wind is the best book I've ever read
Review: When I first picked up Gone With the Wind, I thought that I would be reading it for the rest of my life. To be true, it only took a few weeks to finish and it was the one of the best books I have ever read. I thought that Margaret Mitchell was perfect in her way she described the Civil War with a romantic twist with it. I ended up reading this book for my Honors English class and it was worth every minute of it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Going with the wind: A book passed on from generations
Review: 'Gone with the wind' is one of the greatest love stories ever written. It has withstood the test of time and has emerged as a novel, absolutely unforgettable. I am not even American, yet Mitchell's art of writing and the vivid and real-like descriptions enrapture the reader's imagination crossing all regional boundaries. This book has to be bought and not borrowed, to enjoy its splendour completely.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A brilliantly written story
Review: This has got to be one of my favorite books. Historically accurate and breathtakingly written, you get a real feel for what it was like to live in the Antibellum South. I actually finished the book thinking how much I hated Scarlett as a character, but her journey through life was a magnificent ride. I was actually glad that this book was so long, as I turned page after page and didn't want it to end. It's an accomplishment to finish such a lengthy work, but it was well worth the effort. I love this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book was just awesome
Review: Gone with the wind was one of the best novel i have read so far. The story was so excited and you can't just quit reading it.It holds your emotions through out and you'll never get bore. The character of Scarlet O'Hara was the dominant one in the story but i don't understand why she always behave Rhett badly when he always loved her so much. The most sympethatic character was of Melanie who dies at the end; and she was the one who was taking caring of every body in the home. Ashely character was not bad but i don't know why he always think about the old south. Overall the story is the best.
