For 30 year old literature lover Joan Meeler, there is no heroine so admirable as Gone With the Wind's Scarlett O'Hara. Joan, with her quiet nature and love of good food, falls shockingly short of Scarlett's outspoken passion, strength, and 17 inch waist. Yet as the secret hostess of an advice blog called Scarlett Says, she discovers she's quite adept at dispensing advice in Scarlett's devil-may-care tone. Joan is happy to live vicariously ...until she meets Charles, a Christian and faithful Scarlett Says reader, who suddenly has Joan dreaming of something more. Since Scarlett has never let her down, Joan digs deeper and deeper into her heroine's mind, searching for something to calm her rising insecurities. But her search falls short, and Joan realises that she must look within herself-and to God-to uncover the inner confidence she never knew she possessed.

    Well Done

    Scarlett Says is written in the first person, present tense, as Joan addresses the big issue in her past which pre-empted her withdrawal into her own space, and as she listens to Siggy's biblical words of wisdom. I liked Joan and her voice was engaging and easy to read, so it never felt like I was missing anything by not having another point of view. \\r\\n\\r\\nThe use of first person was good for showing how insular Joan was, and possibly her lack of judgement in choosing Scarlett O'Hara as her role model-which is kind of sad. I've always admired Scarlett's boldness and determination to achieve whatever she set her mind to, but she was also manipulative and self-centred, two less positive characteristics. \\r\\n\\r\\nThere were a handful of things which suspended disbelief, including (I'm sorry to say) the abrupt ending, but that didn't alter the central theme of Scarlett Says, or the impact of Joan's emotional and spiritual journey as she faces her past and looks to building a different future. \\r\\nRecommended for fans of Angela Hunt, Katherine Ready, of anyone wanting a little more depth in their Christian fiction. \\r\\n\\r\\nThanks to Abingdon Press and NetGalley for providing a free ebook for review.
