I just finish listening to the audiobook of Gone with the Wind. Good god that book is long! I have to admit I hated Scarlett. Well to be honest the only character I really liked was Melanie. I am extremely proud that I read it. I do love the era it was written about. I do think it had too many climaxes, I got bored. The ending was fitting for Scarlett's character but I still didn't like it. I am glad I read it and I encourage everyone to read it at least once, but I won't be buying a copy. Thanks and happy reading!
Welcome
This blog is about the books I read, if I liked them or not, and if I kept them on my bookshelf or took them off. I hope you enjoy my thoughts on the books and pick up a book today!

Gathering Blue
I read this book when I was younger and loved it. I decided to reread it. It is amazing what you understand as an adult that you missed as a teenager. Its a ok story but I find it lacking and rushed. I probably won't reread this again.
Little Women
I listened to the audiobook of Little Women. Thanks to my husband for introducing me to librivox.org. You can download audiobooks that are in the public domain for free. I liked this story, very charming little family. I liked Jo the most and adored the ending. This book definitely found a spot on my bookshelf.
