3.5

Almost gave this book 3 stars instead of 4, but I think that was mostly Alcott fatigue - reading all her works is great, but she does have a few favourite themes, so the novelty wears off a bit.
This one was wholesome and sweet, not super preachy (or maybe I'm becoming desensitised), but not very funny either.
