Coming of age in the North during the Civil War, the March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—experience great joy and tragic loss while becoming true little women.
Like so many of my peers, J totally think Jo should have married Laurie. I mean, I like the professor, but?well, perhaps it is more true to say Laurie should have married Jo. Course, he would have liked to?. ( )
What can I say about a beloved classic story, that hasn't already been said? The story itself might be a little outdated, but the sense of warmth, love, support and respect between Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy, Marmee, Mr. March and the Laurences, never falls out of fashion. Although I've read this novel 8 times, on this occasion I chose to revisit it for readalong group on Goodreads. The slower pace was really enjoyable and it felt like I picked up on some nuances that I'd overlooked in the past. I think anytime someone rereads a book it becomes a different story too, because the reader has changed along the way.
Five stars and three cheers for the Little Women. ( )
The sugary goodness of the girls was overdone, often making them unbelievable to me. This didn't ruin the book for me though, it just kept it in the realm of fairytales rather than real life. ( )
Almost every single line is overflowing with passion, the choice of words, the portrayal of characters, and the eloquence of emotions, all of this just makes me wonder how is it even possible for someone to write so elegantly with a simple yet appealing tone. This is surely one of those books where you know it is going to be a classic masterpiece at first glance. It delivers so well that I feel as if I am there, in that house along with the characters.
