Oh definitely stronger than all the male charcters - except Rhett obviously! It's apparent from the first time we see her interacting with Stuart & Brent Tarleton when they're so worried about upsetting her and spending hours trying to figure out how - mind you, red-headed men don't have much common sense nowadays, never mind back then

The End is nigh, and the Prince of Darkness has been given one last shot at redemption, if he can manage to live out a reasonably blameless life on earth. As a trial run, he negotiates a month of "trying without buying" in the body of struggling writer Declan Gunn. ("Incarnation, the angelic drug of choice. Unlike cocaine, not to be sniffed at.") Luce seizes the opportunity to binge on earthly delights, to straighten the biblical record (Adam, it's hinted, was a misguided variation on the Eve design), to celebrate his favorite achievements (Elton John, for one), and to try to get his screenplay sold, but the experience of walking among us isn't what His Majesty expected: instead of teaching us what it's like to be him, Lucifer finds himself understanding what it's like to be human.

For the Rory Challenge The classic story of Scarlet O'Hara and Rhett Butler, set in Jonesboro & Atlanta during the American Civil War. I found a few little snippets of information about GwtW tonight. Apparently the original title was going to be "Pansy" as was the main character of Scarlet - doesn't quite have the same ring to it does it? Other titles also considered before GwtW was settled on included Tote The Weary Load and Tomorrow Is Another Day! The title is taken from the first line of the third stanza of the poem Non Sum Qualis eram Bonae Sub Regno Cynarae by Ernest Dowson. "I have forgot much, Cynara! Gone with the wind."

Have just cancelled my hold on Running With Scissors at the library and instead bought a copy, along with Reading Lolita In Tehran - too impatient to wait on other people finishing and returning them Hopefully they'll be here on Tuesday/Wednesday

I really hope you like it now, the pressure is immense I'm looking forward to the sequel, fingers crossed it's just as good

Unfinished Business - White Lies

Mowgli's Road - Marina & The Diamonds

Simplify - Marina & The Diamonds

Nothing better to do except read, especially now my tv has gone to tv heaven :D Congrats on getting past the halfway stage! I think Scarlet is amazing because she is selfish, so intrinsically flawed but so much stronger than any other female character in the book - totally unique and definitely a permanent favourite now

Nicola, I'd surprised if there wasn't at least an element of truth in this - be interesting to see what happens in the next few days in the headlines

Frankie, Lucy, Kylie & CaliLily, I've been reading GwtW all day - up to page 418 Scarlet is fast becoming one of my favourite literary characters!

Currently reading Gone With The Wind for the Rory Challenge and alongside that I'm reading I, Lucifer by Glen Duncan and The Ladies Of Grace Adieu by Susanna Clarke

Yay! Sparkly Power Rules! My excuse is I'm on a sugar high

I'm a soft touch for anything sticker-y or sparkly and as for markers, well I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to have large numbers of them in many different colours

Stickers? I love stickers - you have free rein to do anything
