Title: Only because I love Scarlett and Rhett....
Product review: Let me preface this review by telling you that, at first reading (at the age of 14), even I didnt quite understand how Rhett loved Scarlett. I guess that just leaves me and Scarlett as the only ones clueless to this fact. So, in reviewing 'Scarlett', I have to grudgingly admit that I enjoyed it. However, I must say that I enjoyed it as it was: completely isolated from GWTW. It was a fun, easy read, but it had absolutely nothing to do with the original. Or, you could say, it was an exact copy of the original. Replace Scarlett's longing for Ashley with her longing for Rhett. Take away the Civil War and awkardly slip in the conflict between English landlords and thier Irish tenants. Ripley's only saving grace is that Scarlett, at some point, HAD to gain some maturity, allowing Ripley to change the character. However, if you are looking for something fun to read while you are taking a break from War and Peace, by all means, enjoy!
