lanikei 's review for:
Rhett Butler's People
by Donald McCaig
Read this book all in one sitting today, though I can't say that's a vote of confidence for it considering my mood.
First, understand that this is not a book in anyway related to the other sequel - Scarlett. I guess I sort of assumed it would follow along with that storyline, and it most assuredly does not. The most obvious change is that made to Rosemary (Rhett's sister) and her mother. Because I am really a huge fan of Scarlett, I had a tough time adapting to these new interpretations of characters I previously loved.
Too many sad things happened all at once, which, again perhaps because of my mood, was overwhelming. Maybe on some other day or in smaller doses they wouldn't have bothered me as much.
In general the book was an interesting take, but I felt like the author didn't delve into Rhett as much as he could have. I guess I expected more of Rhett's perspective on [b:Gone With the Wind|18405|Gone With The Wind|Margaret Mitchell|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1166913011s/18405.jpg|3358283], and instead got strangely unrelated backstory.
Worth a read for fans of the original, but not something I would probably recommend to anyone else.
