Scarlett by Alexandra Ripley

3.0

Gone With the Wind is one of my all-time favourite books, so I was really looking forward to this read. However, it left me feeling unsatisfied and wanting more. It starts off decently, but by the middle I found myself just reading to get it over and done with. I found myself becoming more and more frustrated with Scarlett’s actions and her way of thinking, as well as questioning everything about Colum. I really didn’t find myself feeling hooked again until the last chapter. The ending left me wanting more, but not enough so to go through hundreds more pages that didn’t grab my attention.

Definitely no where near the level of a read Gone With the Wind was. Disappointing.
