The book was mostly fine until the last third. Certain events, choices, and matches did not work for me or really seem to fit the story or characters.
I think m biggest issue was the writing. Some was fine but then there were chapters that were INCREDIBLY preachy. There was no subtly about morals or faith, it felt more like an essay than fictional writing.
Moderate: Terminal illness

Although I've not seen any film adaptation of Little Women, I thought I knew the basic plot, but I was surprised - pleasantly so - by the ending! I was particularly attached to Amy by the end of the book, which I didn't expect at the beginning, and actually found Jo a bit irritating. I thought, though, that there was a good balance between the characters and the focus switched often enough to keep the story from becoming too dull.
