I have been looking at this book on my shelf for some time now and I keep wanting to pick it up and read it but never get around to it. What better way to accomplish this than by making it a book club pick?
I love the movie and I am of the belief that the book is always better, so I am really excited to dive into this one.
Gone with the Wind is the epic tale of Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler, set against the backdrop of the Civil War.
Synopsis from Goodreads:
Set against the dramatic backdrop of the American Civil War, Margaret Mitchell's epic love story is an unforgettable tale of love and loss, of a nation mortally divided and its people forever changed. At the heart of all this chaos is the story of beautiful, ruthless Scarlett 'O' Hara and the dashing soldier of fortune, Rhett Butler.
I first read GWTW about 40 years ago. Since then most of my memories of the characters have been based on the movie (which I l-o-v-e). I reread GWTW last year and was surprised by how different (better) from the movie it really is. I'm sure you'll be pleased when you read it. I'll be awaiting your comments once you've finished. :)
