Is this actually a 5 star book? Maybe not, but it’s too wrapped up in childhood love and nostalgia to be anything else to me! I was pleasantly surprised, reading it with my 10 year old daughter for the first time, that it holds up excellently. We laughed, we cried, she started calling me “Marmee”- it was everything I remembered. We did have to take quite a hiatus once my daughter realized the death of a beloved character was imminent, but we came back to it when she felt ready. My kiddo even wants to read other works by Alcott, which I have to admit I never did, so this will be interesting!
