Title: No Margret Mitchell, but Alexandra is a respectable writer
Product review: As an AVID GWTW fan, I knew no sequel could compare- perhaps this is why Margret Mitchell herself, never wrote a sequel or published another book in her life time. While this novel cannot hold a candle to GWTW, I give Alexandra credit for taking on such a big project, and her historically accurated descriptions of a post-civil war south. Scarlett isnt the same character she was in GWTW, neither is Rhett- Scarlett's adventures to Ireland leave a bit to be desired and 1/2 the book only covers 1/6 of the time spand of the novel, the plot tends to go ON and ON and ON with no direction. When it comes to descriptive lanuage however Alexandra has it right on the money- if the characters were anyone other than Rhett or Scarlett the book may actually be very good. But then its very easy to fall short when you are trying to imitate a classic.
