Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell up to page 492

Finally! This section was much more interesting than the last few, no offense to them. Before I rant, here's what's happened:
In mid-November the family learns that the Yankee army is again marching toward Tara. Terrified of losing the food and the house, Scarlett sends everyone into the swamp to hide with the animals and the food. She keeps Melanie’s baby with her. Scarlett refuses to abandon Tara and meets the Yankees at the front door. A swarm of soldiers pours in around her, destroying everything they do not steal. One soldier tries to take Wade’s grandfather’s sword, which is now Wade’s birthright, but Scarlett persuades the Yankee sergeant to stop him. The enraged soldier runs into the kitchen and sets the place on fire as the Yankees stream out of the house. With great effort, Scarlett and Melanie succeed in putting out the fire. Scarlett’s contempt for Melanie once again gives way to grudging admiration. Around Christmastime, a man named Frank Kennedy and a few Confederate soldiers visit Tara, looking for food for the army. Frank tells Scarlett and Melanie that General Sherman has burned Atlanta to the ground, although Aunt Pittypat’s house escaped the destruction. Frank confides in Scarlett that the end is near, and he finally becomes engaged to Scarlett’s sister Suellen after years of courtship. By April the war is over, and Scarlett, relieved rather than dejected, makes plans to plant cotton for next year’s market. The roads are safe once again, and neighbors help each other get back on their feet.

Im so glad the war is over! again, this totally correlates with Scarlett's feelings. Just as she is settling down and supporting herself, the turmoil is ending! Im really glad Scarlett has been able to accept Melanie more and appreciate her for being a good person even though she should be bitter since Melanie still has Ashley. Either way, this section was quite a relief for me. Those war scenes were kinda not my thing anyways. Im just really wondering where the novel will go from here. I mean it seems like Scarlett's troubles are over right?
