I love this book named gone with the wind.It is exciting.The book talk about the love stroy hanppened in the Civil War U.S.As far as I concerned the story is romantic.Scarlett O'hara is a brave lady.Though the war,she became as rigid as adamant.Athough she and Rhett Butler'love is twist.You will find how complicated life is only after you experienced it.

I like the movie too.I remember when I was in junior hight school,I found it would put on TV at 12:00.I put my clock under my pillow and I was got up on time to watch it.And went to school on time next day.It is amazing!

I like gone with the wind very much.Do you agree with me?

God bless you and happy mylotting!:)

I haven't read this novel yet, but I know it's quite a famous book. The movie is nice and the soundtrack is also great. Although this movie was filmed long time ago, but it's still one of the most classical movies.

I have read this movie about 5 years ago but I haven't seen the movie version. I was so bored at that time and I saw my sister's novels and Gone With the Wind was one of the novels in my sister's bookshelf that I got interested in. Even though it has more than a thousand pages I forgot some of the details on the book. I remember Scarlett has a great likings in green color. Rhett Butler was really a total life saver to Scarlett after the war and most male neighbors of Scarlett on her own age died in the war.

wow! I can really tell how you like the movie..I have also watched the movie too when I was in college. We are having our film showing in our english class although I really don't understand and appreciate better because I was late and nervous my teacher might scold me for being late. I may try to watch it again though.

Gone with the wind was a great book and a very well done movie.

I also enjoyed the sequel Scarlett as well as the prequel Rhetts People...both were written with permission of Margaret Mitchell the original author. I never really liked Scarlett in the movie...She really took Rhett for granted and didnt appreciate him preferring instead a wimp like Ashely Wilkes. I think she got what she deserved in the end of Gone with the wind.


myLot reputation of 91/100. njblair (135)   ranked 12 out of 39 in gone with the wind  12 months ago

So do I.I read the sequel scarlett too.It is happy ending.I really like it.Thanks for sharing your feelings.I am glad to hear that.


Have a great day and happy mylotting!:)

I love it too. I love "Tomorrow is another day", this sentence tells a lot about Scarlett O'hara, she's really very positive about life. Beside the love story between she and Rhett Butler, I think the love for the land/house is very strongly reflected. Sometimes when I have a difficult day at work, I yearn for the comfort of home, for my room, for my bed. I can understand how Scarlett feels about her home.


myLot reputation of 91/100. njblair (135)   ranked 12 out of 39 in gone with the wind  11 months ago

You are right!I ove"Tomorrow is another day"too.And I think Scarlett is a brave woman.Thanks for sharing!:)...Best wishes!

Whenever the lottery results out, and the winner is not me. Then I will tell myself "Tomorrow is another day." One day I will strike big, really big.

I enjoyed the book and the movie. All the characters were colorful and interesting. Scarlett found herself in a situation where she had no other choice than to become self sufficient and strong. It is thought that the author, Margaret Mitchell, took some of her own characteristics and family background to develope Scarlett.

To correct one of the previous postings, it was Margaret Mitchell's estate that authorized the other two novels, Scarlett and Rhett Butler's People. Margaret Mitchell died in 1949 from injuries sustained after being hit by a car driven by an off duty cab driver in Atlanta, GA.

Of course! Gone With the Wind is one of the best films ever made. This is my favorite film of all time and even though it is 4 hours long, I love watching it over and over and over again. Scarlett O'Hara is my heroine. For me, she epitomizes a very strong woman who does not give up easily despite the hardships in life. She may be cunning at times but her end justifies her means.

The book was written in 1933 but the movie was shown in 1939. But, despite the fact that it was produced in 1939, the movie showed great cinematography and the effects were simply marvelous. Another trivia: do you know that the movie took so long because they could not find the right actress to play Scarlett O' Hara. Fortunately, Vivien Leigh was perfect for the role, like Clark Gable is the perfect Rhett Butler.

I love the book and the film so much that I also read the sequel of the book: Scarlett - Gone with the Wind Part 2. You should also read that. Though I feel that Margarett Mitchell, the author of the first Gone With the Wind book, would have done better than Alexandra Ripley, the one who wrote GWTW part 2. There were some inconsistencies with the second book and there were some loopholes in the story. All in all, the sequel did not do justice to the first book.

Gone With the Wind was always one of my favourite books. I have read it so many times that my hardcover copy is actually falling apart. I'm scared to touch it to read it again. I have had it for many years and it is one of the first editions. It is very old and the pages are all yellow. I don't even remember when or how I got it. I have had it since I was a child and too young to even understand it.

I enjoy watching the movie too but I find the book much better. The movie is missing so many details and it changes a lot of things, like the fact that Scarlett actually had more than one child.

I also read the sequel to Gone With the Wind called Scarlett. Of course it was not written by Margaret Mitchell, because she is dead. It was written by Alexandria Ripley. I read it about 15-20 years ago. I only read it once. It was okay but you could tell that it was written by a different author and that put me off the book somehow. Her writing style is much different than Mitchell's.
