Summary: Great Book!
Review: Scarlett and Gone With the Wind are both very good. The best books that I have ever read. Alexandra Ripley picks up very well in Scarlett where Margaret Mitchell left off with Gone With the Wind. They are both very talented authors.

Summary: It has affected my life!
Review: I read GWTW when I was in the 5th grade. I fell in love with it instantly, and have never read a better book since. This book has affected how I think and act. You can't help but admire Scarlett and all she stands for. At times all she had was her determination to survive and her pride. Once in school we had to do a report on the person we most admire. I had to convince the teacher to let me do it on Scarlett. Whenever I come to a hard time in my life, I try to be strong and I compare strong to Scarlett. This book tells not only how the South was affected but how the lives of the woman left behind were affected by the Civil War. The book is so vivid that you feel that you are with Scarlett, Rhett, and all the other unforgettable characters. I hope that I meet a man like Rhett. He loved Scarlett for years, knowing the worst of her but still loving her despite her faults. The book is the epitome of the Old South; with all the grace, beauty, and pride to go along with it.

Summary: The best book I've ever read!
Review: I loved this book! I love to read about the Civil War and this book takes you from the beginning to the end of this great time period. I'm 14 years old and a lot of my 8th grade classmates thought I was nuts to read it. But I didn't let that get in my way. I've seen the movie and don't think it got even close to the book. If you want to read a great romance/adventure/tradgedy this is the book for you!

Summary: This is the best book that I have ever read.
Review: I have only read Gone With the Wind and I am currently reading Scarlett. I love Gone With the Wind and so far Scarlett is almost just as good. I was forced to read this book by many friends and after I started the book i could not put it down. I recommend this book to everybody of all ages and both sexes.

Summary: Gone with the Wind: An Epic in American Literature
Review: I read Gone With the Wind in the seventh grade, and since then have read it several times. To me it is an inspiration; its plot is magnificent, its characters well developed and true. It is a book that truly embodies the dream of writing the "Great American Novel"

Summary: The Best Book on Earth
Review: Although this is the longest book I've ever read in my life (1024 pages in my edition), it wasn't long enough, and it never could be. I loved this book, and now that I've read it all i can say is that I'm glad there's a sequel. From the first few paes the book catches the readers and and wraps them up in it's pages, carrying them along with the life of Scarlett O'hara. We laugh with her, cry with her, feel her her emotions as if they were our own. You cannot stop thinking about the book, even though your mind should be on other things. The only desire is to keep reading and find out more, until the book finally lets go. Then the reader is left alone and confused, wondering what has happened, and where the story has gone. The book is a masterpiece, a novel in perfection, and my only regret is that this scale only goes from one to ten, for Gone With The Wind deserves a 100.

Summary: The ultimate love story.
Review: Gone With the Wind is the realization of an author's dream - to tell an American story of American attitudes in a deceptively treacherous society that became completely uprooted during an extended period of political turmoil in the United States. The characters are beautifully developed, the flavor of the period is flawlessly interwoven with the stories of the characters' lives, and we cling to each minor triumph and defeat as Mitchell works her way through this huge book. This is one book that you will want to read several times.
