S...Loved the book of Gone with the Wind, LOVED it. She was able to put into words a character who is constantly thinking yet doesn't really even know her own mind. I think the biggest crime in the movie was the character of Ashley, who they made weak and foolish. Ashley in the book is wonderful. It took me ages to read it, a flight home from Heathrow helped, but I recommend it. If I know you, you'll hate the movie for a while.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-67739033788056000662012-10-03T19:08:18.345-07:002012-10-03T19:08:18.345-07:001.

Those Institute kids better know what a gem they have in you. Seriously, they are the luckiest people ever.<br /><br />3. I read Gone With the Wind last year. I bought a copy from DI, and by the time I finished, the book was in three pieces (that's what duct tape's for, right?). It was super duper long. But I like it a lot. But the whole time I was yelling at Scarlett. (When we were driving somewhere, it kind of alarmed Tim.)Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03765577345097519255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-33428208253441405662012-10-03T15:23:30.927-07:002012-10-03T15:23:30.927-07:00Er, well, I started Gone With the Wind, but abando...Er, well, I started Gone With the Wind, but abandoned it about 40 pages in. It's an uncharacteristic move, but it was a cost/benefit analysis move. I just had a feeling I'd regret the cost once the "benefit" had been made clear.<br /><br />Let me know if I made a huge mistake.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03724496102571383231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-19245838688560280992012-10-02T23:28:05.116-07:002012-10-02T23:28:05.116-07:00Love Gone With the Wind.

And, Rhett is better in the book.aprilalemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18087019132493599956noreply@blogger.com
