"More Divine Secrets"

I have gone all  out and watched "Gone With The Wind" for the first time and all I can say is I was completely sucked in by the drama of it all.  I loved it, I can't believe that it was made over seventy years ago. I can also now put the references to the movie in context with the book and also see how the "Vivi" character channels "Scarlett" so often.  Who is your favourite Ya Ya?  For me it is Necie, I love how she is so scandalised by their antics yet is always apart of all they do.  She tries to be so good  and nice yet always as deeply Ya Ya as any of them.  I am up to page 373 and enjoying myself immensely this is a little different to the books I normally read as well, generally I stick to "Cops and Robbers' or spy novels. I do not usually  read girly books or watch of girly of films but I'm finding the change lots of fun .
