I know Margaret M. Said she didn't think Scarlett and Rhett get back together again, BUT at the very end of the novel - and something I never noticed before - right before he doesn't "give a damn" - they discuss briefly NOT divorcing and Rhett tells Scarlett he will still come back to the house and they can basically carry on as they have been to keep the gossip mills at bay. In my mind, that definitely leaves the door open, even if Rhett currently feels he no longer loves Scarlett. I do have to admit though, even I am sick of her Ashley fetish by now and would have had all I could take. Move on woman!

Fifth time reading the book. Just noticed something that seems incongruous with memory...Scarlett and Rhett finally get married on page 587! That's slightly over 100 pages before the book ends. Memory, however, (at least to me), has them wed closer to the middle of the book. I wonder if it's because the time they spend married has several of the most dramatic events??? Does anyone else feel the same way? Or perhaps it's the fact that there is so much dialogue between them woven throughout the entire novel that it makes it seem they've been together longer.
