Rhett Butler's People: The Authorized Novel based on Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind Audiobook

" doe read - kinda confusing -lotsa of different characters - difficult to keep track of - but overall, enjoyable "

" I actually enjoyed this book much better than Scarlet. "

" interesting take on rhett's side of the story, but the editing was not consistent and it seemed to jump around a lot "

" I really enjoyed this book! I gave it 3 stars for swearing and it talked about brothels more than I would have liked. :( It was so interesting to see Rhett's side of the story. "

" No surprise...I cried my eyes out. I just love to read more about Margaret Mitchell's characters and this one actually felt like a true extension to her original story. "

" Being a Gone with the Wind mega-fan, I loved Rhett Butler's People. It gave you Rhett's point of view and how he became who he was. It was an excellent, quick read. If you haven't read it, you should. "

" I totally enjoyed most of this book; "learning" about the characters in "Gone with the Wind" from the other side, from Rhett's side rather than Scarlett's. The ending was disappointing as it seemed contrived and hurried, as if McCaig's publisher called and said "NOW or never!" Still rating it5 as 4 stars, since most any sequel is usually a disappointment and this was pretty darned good, IMHO. "

" Was okay. Got better as it went on. "

" A few variations from GWTW's story, but nothing major. A beautiful and engaging dimension of the story we know so well. "

" I liked the idea of reading about Rhett's background, childhood, and his own thoughts and reactions to Scarlett. The writing was similar enough to GWTW that it really seemed to work well. My least favorite scenes were with Scarlett. I just didn't get the same feel for her as in GWTW. "

" This book was advertised as a sequel to Gone with the Wind. It was no sequel. It was the same story. It was also no Gone With the Wind. But good. I am glad I read it. "

" What happened after Rhett left Scarlett? Who was he before Scarlett? All these questions and more are answered in this exciting novel that merges scenes from "Gone with the Wind" with Rhett's story. An excellent addition to one of the best novels written. Margaret Mitchell would've been pleased. "

" There were some things I liked about the book, but I felt the characters were one-dimensional. "

" One of my all time favorite books! I recommend it often at work. If you love the movie " Gone with the Wind" then you'll love this book too. It reads like the movie and you learn oh so many Rhett Butler secrets. "

" I have never read Gone With the Wind. only watched the movie. It was an easy read and an interesting character development of what the early life of the Rhett Butler might have been like. I am going to read Gone With the Wind now and see if I still feel the same about this author's view on Butler. "

" I really enjoyed this book. It's a follow up to Gone With the WInd. It fills out GWTW and gives more background to Rhett and all the other familiar characters in the book. I listened to it and enjoyed the Southern voices and the new stories and the old stories mingled together. "

" better than Scarlett but....woefully lacking "

" Loved Gone with the Wind, fun to read about Rhett when he was young! "

" such a different view of Gone With the Wind. "

" Interesting story if you like Gone with the Wind. "

" Interesting saga. Loved knowing Rhett and his family but there were many occurrances in here that did not move the story forward or give insight into the background. I could have been just a little shorter. "

" Bland. Quite good as a pot boiler swashbuckling novel in the Jack London school, but as a prequel to a beloved classic? Tries gallantly, but fails dismally. "

" I am a big Gone With The Wind fan. I love, love, love this book!!! I have read it 3 times! "

" I must say I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would - It's no "Gone With The Wind" but I wasn't expecting it to be. It actually turned out to be a good story, very enjoyable. "

" Since my favorite book is Gone With the Wind of course I enjoyed this one. "

" One of the best books i have ever read!!!!!! "

" I loved this point of view. Excellent Read. "

" Gone with the Wind will always be one of my most favorite books. I did not like the sequel "Scarlett" that came out first. But this one? I loved it. It made the characters even more intruiging because of the details of their earlier lives. Highly recommend it. "

" It's always fun to imagine a story from different perspectives...Rhett Butler's people does just that, and very well, I might add. A fun story to get lost in! "

" I don't know why I chose to read this book. I guess, like others, I'm still chasing after the HEA. "

" I thought this was a great read. Was interesting to read the other side of the story. "

" If you think was too much in the book, well heres the reason why. A must read for anyone who just loves Gone with the Wind. Written by the guy who wrote Jacobs Latter. A must READ! "

" I must say I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would - It's no "Gone With The Wind" but I wasn't expecting it to be. It actually turned out to be a good story, very enjoyable. "

" It was interesting and gave more background information on who Rhett Butler was than we got in "Gone With the Wind". A fun read. "

" Interesting take on "the other side of the story" of Gone With the Wind. Definitely need to read GWTW first and if you like that, read this in your free time. "

" I now want to re read GWTW and Scarlett to see how well this book fits in with their stories. I did really enjoy hearing the story again from Rhett's side. "

" This was an okay book. I'm glad I read it. But I really don't think I will read it again. "

" Enjoyable - I learned a lot about the civil war from the south's perspective that I never realized. I enjoy the read. "

" I liked it. Its not GWTW but its a good read. "

" I loved Gone With The Wind. I also loved this book. It gave a little more history about Rhett and his family. It's a good read. "
