Do you have a favorite classic book?
There are a lot of classic books I’ve loved reading. I will have to admit, one of my favorites is Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell. I consider it one of the must read classics of great literature - and it amazes me that I waited so long to read it.
You see, my mom had a copy the entire time I was growing up. I remember seeing that thick blue book on the shelf hundreds of times but I never bothered to read it. My older sister did, and she loved it. But I held out…
About 30 years later I finally got a copy from the library and read through it. Guess what! That book is entrancing, addicting, and full of life. I consider it to be much better than the movie version of Gone With the Wind, and that too is a classic.
There’s much more in the book. Scarlet O’Hara has an incredible personality. You get hooked into her story and don’t want to put the book down, not even to sleep at night. I very much recommend this book to whoever hasn’t read it yet.
