I love this story but the use of n-word is off-putting. It immerses me in the Civil War era. I do dislike Scarlet.

Classic. Scarlett O'Hara, for me is the most relatable heroine I have read, much to my own chagrin. But I won't think about that now... Ha!

If you’re looking for romance, adventure, history, in the most realistic and excellent way this is your book, is not some lame romantic novel, it has so much more, the way Margaret describes de South-side in the war, all the destruction, the memory of the old “great” days, it’s just amazing. I must say that I’ve hate not many more characters in the way I hate Scarlett, but certainly never hated this much a protagonist, and yet that feeling makes me love and praise even more the work of Margaret.
