Can you imagine reading the actual private thoughts of Mrs. Katy Scarlett O'Hara Hamilton Kennedy Butler herself? What did she really think of "Meli", Ashley, Rhett, and the others? It's all here! And, you'll find yourself reading it from start to finish in one sitting! Best Moment: Scarlett's version of "Look Away Dixie Land". An must-have for any GWTW fan!

What a Hoot! I loved it! Now we know what was really in that pretty little head. I am a long time fan of GWTW (some 30 years worth)and a passionate historian of the antebellum South, but this is too neat a satire to pass up. (Far better than that wretched sequel to GWTW palmed off on us a few years ago!) Scarlett would have been in stitches - heck, she'd have been publishing her memoirs a long time ago! That lady did love the limelight.

If you take GWTW as serious history and don't want your feathers ruffled, no, don't listen to this book. But if you enjoy GWTW as the rousing Southern mythology and legacy it is, I think you will safely get a kick out of this. My only complaint was that the reader speaks so quickly at times that she is difficult to follow and thus doesn't come across as authentically Southern.

THIS WAS DISGUSTING AND DISGRACEFUL AND I CANT BELIVE I PAID AN ENTIRE QUARTER FOR IT!!!!!

This is terrible that some modern-age author thought it funny to make fun of one of literatures greatest works. Its a disgrace to all new-day authors that one dosen't have enough imagination to come up with a story and plot of their own, but instead chooses to downgrade a beloved American classic.
