Rent The Wind Done Gone

This book is lazy, boring, confusing, frustrating and basically, not worth reading. Half the time, I didn't know what the author was talking about. The book jumps all over the place without any obvious relevance...none of the stories, memories, thoughts seem like their even connected to each other. The narrator - Cynara even the main characters name is trying too hard - considers herself to be a strong woman but comes across to me as a spoiled, whiny, self-absorbed brat. The author should have written a book about slavery in the antebellum and reconstruction south without trying to ride on the coattails of an American classic for publicity. This book probably wouldn't have irritated me nearly as much if there wouldn't have been any reference to GWTW.
