Mar 23, 2017TEENREVIEWCREW rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
The American Civil War was a pretty dreadful time to live. This classical literature book (very thick and full of content) shows the horrors of living through this time, through the eyes of Scarlett O'Hara. Throughout the book, her character development from a girl who had it all to a girl who lost it all is fabulously detailed. Her determination and steely personality gets her through a lot, but that is precisely what blinds her from the affection of someone who loved her dearly. I think that while her stubbornness may have been attractive to some, it was a bit irksome to read. This book has broken many hearts, and will continue to do so for a long, long time. 4/5 Stars.   - @Siri of the Teen Review Board of the Hamilton Public Library I had read this book at an early age. This book was impressive and I liked it very much. The main character is a young girl named Scarlett. She once fell in love with a man but he married his cousin and then joined the army. Then Scarlett and his pregnant cousin began running away from panic and bad things. They have been through so many things and their relationship became really close. Scarlett found herself care about the girl. During the time, Scarlett attracted a few men and one of them loved her deeply. Scarlett turned to him for help when she needed money urgently. I would give this book a 4 out of 5. - @Lize of the Teen Review Board of the Hamilton Public Library Gone with the Wind is one of the most encompassing novels I have ever read. The long, detailed writing style paints the world and characters around it to the point where life jumps off every page. Despite the length of chapters, after finishing one I would have to instantly read the next one and end up avoiding half of my plans for the day to read instead. The main character, Scarlett O’Hara, despite having problematic qualities is somebody the reader can truly root for, and whose story was greatly inspiring in her perseverance. I loved the beautiful descriptions of the settings, and how there was truly not a boring moment in the entire thousand or so pages. -@ClockworkReader of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library
