Don't read that book! It's horrible! It sucks! It was the worst book I have ever read, and I have read at least five thousand books. It was bad! It took me three weeks to read when I was 14 and it was torturous, the only thing that saved me from brain death was reading Dune at the same time.

Die Scarlett Die!

Sorry. I'm over it now. Don't mention that book again, please.

Gone With The Wind! Gone With the Wind! Gone With the Wind! Sorry, just being Gollum!

So...tell me, Jen...what did you really think of Gone With the Wind? Don't hold back, now! :-)

Sounds like you feel as strongly about it as I do about Tom Cruise. Just reminded of it because someone brought him up (can't even remember why) at dinner the other night and I reacted the way I usually do. Dad told me I should have a villain in my story that I picture as being just like Tom Cruise, 'cause then all my negative feelings would come out in the story and keep things interesting...

I can't believe I managed to type his name twice!!

As you are well aware, taste do change. At 14, I thought The Hobbit was the worst book ever written. Now, I know better. So, maybe, you should give GWTW another try. When you are rested and feel up to the challenge.

Oh, stop being such a yankee...

There are books that every "literate" person should read. I'm slowly working my way through them (and wish I had a better list). But GWTW is one that should be read.

I still need to read "From Here to Eternity."
