overall, it was okay. I liked jo & beth, but didn’t really 100% follow everything that was happening (I think I got lost with some of the old-timey language)

I can't believe I've never read this. It is such a good book. I love the gentle style. I stretched out my reading of this book because I just loved spending time with these great characters. Of course, I knew the story. But, of course, the book is better. When I watched the movie I hated Jo's choice. But in the book I loved it. Partly because I was prepared for it. But also because I understood it so much better through Alcott's telling the story.
Marmee is my hero. She completely inspired me. I want to be a mother like her. That is the other reason I am so, so glad I read this book.

The type of book where one chapter will be heartwarming and uplifting and in the next you’ll be sobbing. Maybe the most beautiful thing about this book is that the copy I read was originally my grandmothers, and on the particularly sad parts I could still see the crumpled splotches on the page. I loved every page of this book…… except the ending (oooh controversial).
