I loved this book. This was probably one of the only books that I have read that made me cry. My favorite character is Jo. Jo is just the best.
I am mad at this book.
Listen to me, I don't wanna be reasonable. I know for a fact that Jo and Laurie aren't fit for each other and wouldn't cope well with one another but, however. Guess what? I don't give a damn about that I don't caarree they should've ended up tooooggggeeettthhheeerrr!
Louisa my dear darling, when I die I'm gonna face you! Better prepare!
Besides what's with glorifying / romanticizing poverty? Poverty is no fun and games it's hard and brutal
I'm mad at this book with a passion it's stupid.
However however, I liked bits and pieces here and there and I don't regret reading it.

Louisa Alcotts writing style is beautiful and her life is what inspired the story and series. The characters are so relatable and lively. My faves were the four sisters.
This was a beautiful read, the first part is set during the civil war. It chronicles the March sisters lives as they learn to battle their sins and grow - they learn patience, faithfulness, gratitude, love, simplicity and to be content. They all grow into beautiful women.
The second part is about the March sisters set 1870’s where they learn to be housewife’s, homemakers, find love and let go of what isn’t meant to be. The love stories with each couple is so sweet and beautiful.
Meg - is sweet and she goes from wanting money and nice things to being content and happy. She loves her husband and children, their home and learning to be a wonderful mother, wife and homemaker.
Jo - is strong, independent, kind and passionate. She had wanted to become famous and loved her talent. She discovers love, character and how home needs her as a a strong woman.
Beth - is selfless and shy. She learns to trust God fully. She is content when those around her are happy and she is encouraging when they aren’t.
Amy - is graceful and talented. She goes from being selfish and shallow to growing up into a strong woman. She uses her gifts to help others.
The main themes of this book are:
👱🏻♀️Womenhood is a gift.
🎨Learning to use their God given gifts.
✝️Relying on God.
🤱🏻Homemaking and raising families.
💵Being content with what you have.
💖The true riches of life - health, love, family and most importantly faith.

4.75 stars! This was sweet! There was something timeless and endearing about the writing, and I really loved a lot of the themes and events from this book! It felt like a warm hug and will have a place in my heart. But some of the themes covered in this book were a little bit sexist/ableist and made me uncomfortable. However, I still love this book while also being midnful of its flaws and taking them as a lesson for the future. It is my firm belief that none of this book's adaptations did it justice! It was so multi-layered and enchanting. I understand that this book is not for everyone, but I fell in love with it, although it did take me FOREVER!
