First Sentence
booted to the knee and thick with saddle muscles, crossed negligently. Nineteen years old, six feet two inches tall, long of bone and hard of muscle, with sunburned faces and deep auburn hair, their eyes merry and arrogant, their bodies clothed in identical blue coats and mustard-colored breeches they were as much alike as two bolls cotton.

Format:Hardcover
It never got boring. Every page was exciting. The character of Scarlet O'Hara is one that will be your favorite forever. All of her imperfections just make you love her more. It was one of those books that you wish wouldn't have ended, even though it is well over one thousand pages long. It is almost sad to think that no other book, in my mind, will ever live up to Gone With the Wind.
Format:Hardcover
This is by far the best book I have ever read. It is the epitimy of what a love story should be. My favorite character from the book is of course, Scarlett O'Hara, because of her passion for life and her southern charm. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone.
Format:Hardcover
Gone With the Wind is, without a doubt, my one and only obsession. Since reading it at age 10, I have attempted to acquire everything that I have found to be associated with this extrodinary book. I am now 16 and my love for Gone With the Wind is still exceedingly strong. Alexandra Ripley's so-called sequel was good but her Scarlett and Rhett did not suit the originals. Margaret Mitchell was a superb author with a genious for portraying saucy, touch-me-not characters like Scarlett and smooth,arrogant ones like Rhett. Throughout the book Scarlett's insistance that she would always love Ashley and Rhett would never have that privilege perfectly led up to the ending where she finally realizes that she only wanted Ashley because she could not have him. Gone With the Wind is the best book ever written and in my mind that fact will never change.
