"Tomorrow is another day"



This is the story of Scarlet O' Hara, a beautiful southern belle and Captain Rhett Butler, a dashing soldier of fortune. Scarlet had everything in life until the war. She is strong and ruthless. She always gets what she wants and doesn't care what people think. She loves attention and wants every man to be wrapped around her finger.

There are many characters in this story. Among them is Ashley Wilkinson and Melanie Hamilton. The story revolves round these 4 characters. 

This is historical fiction set up during American Civil War. This story shows the transformation of people during and after the civil war. Its about love, loss, change and being strong. 

I loved the writing. The author explained in details regarding the American Civil War and its courses. The characters are amazing. I liked how the characters change as the story progressed 

People do change in course of time due to the situation and often forget who they really are. We cannot live in past and there is always tomorrow. Time heals pain. We have to accept change and move on. Margaret Mitchell described all these things in these beautiful story. 

I really liked this book and i have rated it as 4.5/5 stars (https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1800817103?book_show_action=false)

Book Review: The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion

Blurb Meet Don Tillman. Don is getting married. He just doesn't know who to yet. But he has designed a very detailed questionnaire to help him find the perfect woman. One thing he already knows, though, is that it's not Rosie. Absolutely, completely, definitely not. Review Don Tillman, a 39-year-old Geneticist tries to find a suitable wife using science. After undergoing a lot of analysis he designs a questionnaire. He thinks that these set of questions will lead him to find a suitable wife. This story is adorable. There were a lot of funny moments. The writing is really good and also the characters are so cute. I really liked the idea of finding a perfect partner using concepts of research methodology and statistics. I guess some of my friends could use the same techniques to find a partner 😄 😄😄since they are working in the field of data analysis.  Characters Don Tillman:   He is a weird science guy. He is too nerdy similar to Sheldon Cooper. Soc...
