For me, this book is about the ability to survive in a world where old ways are collapsing, and it has two main heroines - Scarlett and Melanie. They are complete opposites, but both are incredibly strong and capable of surviving, each in their own way.

Both of them are strong and charming in their own ways, and both had the courage to stand up to society. But I like Melanie a little more, she judged people by their actions, trusting her heart rather than rumors or public opinion.

Scarlett managed to survive during the war, but in peacetime, she was largely protected by Melanie’s immense reputation.

Who is closer to you in character, Scarlett or Melanie?
