You know I have never seen this movie. I would rather read the book. I remember my mother telling me that this was her favorite book. I would love to sit down and read. The 900+ pages are a little intimidating though... Great review Jessica! You know I have never seen this movie. I would rather read the book.

And you are so right that it is difficult to know where to begin to review or even talk about the book and also the movie. I read it when I was 13 and have read it many times since. I have a GWTW website that you might enjoy. Lots of great collectibles and memorabilia. There is an article there about my doll collection gifted to me by an old friend. Of course, I look everyday for that first edition of the book that is in my price range. They show up often. Thanks for doing the review..........it made me smile.

It's so much more complex than the movie, good though that was. Glad you enjoyed it, too! It’s been decades since I actually read this book, but I remember how much I enjoyed it.

It's intimidating to try and review a book like this. The plot is difficult to summarize, and that doesn't even really touch what the book is about. Great review!

I persuaded my dad tor ead it. He finished it after 2 months (he isn't much of a reader). When I asked him how he was, he said "It was rubbish, No body can be as stupid and unbelievable as Scarlett" :) I don't know what to make of his comment :) I LOVED this book.
