I won't be able to write a review that would do justice to this classic, beautiful literature, except to say that "glad" is an understatement of how I was to have been able to learn about the Marches, and the extension of family that grew altogether on the second part of the book.

Happiness, pain, heartbreak, loss and joy—it's rather an honor for me to have felt and almost experienced it myself along with its characters. Surely, this story is one among those that I would love to go back to every time I may need a company of a dear friend.

I don't regret reading it just now. I'm afraid I won't enjoy it as much as I would if I'd read this earlier in my life. This may be intended as a children's book, but I highly doubt it can't be savored by anyone at an older age.

Loved, loved, loved, this book. Thought that it really gave some great counsel even to be used today.

Very comforting, very nice, but too moralizing for me. The lessons about being good mother and wife, religiosity, excessive modesty were tiring… just let the girl wear a fancy dress..

2020 review:

really enjoyed this! don't ask me to choose a favorite sister, because i know in my heart that whoever i chose would just start poetically talking about how amazing her sisters are, so i would never pit them against each other.
