Worth reading? Probably. American literature and all that. 

As racist as I expected it to be? More so. Standard white savior stuff mixed with just about every stereotype you could possibly imagine. 

Better than the weird nonsense in the thornbirds, my comparison for all trashy epics. No. I'd rather read that again 10000 times than read this ever again.

5 star romance and look at character…. And.. it is interesting and important. But the Racism, Lost Cause narrative, social impact, even the pacing at points, etc, deserve Worse than no stars on an app. I am glad Margaret got hit by a car.
