You will be disappointed in this book if your are looking for tips on courage, strength, and overcoming adversity. Scarlett’s rules such as “no regrets”, “get over it”, and “move along with life” are not found in this book. The book focuses on the author’s rules for avoiding Scarlett’s mistakes.
The chapter on “Tommorrow is another day” contains cliches about procrastination. If you think “Tomorrow is another day” is about hope, opportunity, and living life, you will be overcome with a powerful urge to re-write the book yourself.

The only redeeming factor of this book is the vast references to the screenplay and novel. The self-help twists and advice offered by the author are none to which a Southern lady would lend an ear. I bought 2 copies of this book: 1 for a friend, a real Gone With the Wind enthusiast, and 1 for myself. I gave it to her before I read my copy. I apologized afterward. Yes, it’s that bad!

I had expected somethiing a little more contemporary than just another “how to” book. Hearing a review on NPR made me think this title might be a bit more special than it is. Though not unique, it’s good bedtime reading and will put you to sleep………..

A fiesty woman’s handbook. A book full of great advice and reminders on how to make the most of life. And for Scarlett lovers, this book is as fun to read as it is insightful.

After two-dozen “Gone With the Wind” reads and lots of research, Lisa Bertagnoli knows. This author wastes no time in getting us right inside Miss Scarlett’s head for a look at the world through those two famously calculating green eyes. When to say “fiddle-dee-dee” with youthfully flippant Scarlett, or, muse more thoughtfully as a mature Scarlett would do–its all tucked into this clever little volume. Reads fun, fast and smart. Self-help with sass–esp. nice gift bundled with the novel.
