Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Patterson

This is probably Ms. Patterson’s best novel. It’s the simple story of two people who really like each other. But their friendship is cut short when tragedy strikes.

Rhett Butler’s People by Donald McCraig

Another disappointing addition to Gone with the Wind! Mr. McCraig has blatant disregard for Mrs. Mitchell’s intricately crafted story, making Rhett Butler a tragic, dark figure. It’s almost as if he never even read the original book!

Scarlett by Akexandra Rippley

These is absolutely nothing to say about this book besides that it is horrible and probably the worst sequel in literary history! For one thing, it’s just not as good as Gone with the Wind but, it’s if Mrs. Mitchell had wanted there to be more to the story, she would have written more herself. She left us with questions that should be left to us to answer!
