What a cozy little book. The type of book to transport you from a rainy dreary day into sunny meadow full of butterflies and clouds. (Yes it's raining right now)
This book really sped up towards the end and I found myself really immersed in the Marchs 19th century life. This included me continuously referring to everything as CAPITAL! This book was truly some capital stuff.
I really was pleasantly surprised to see this book differ from the movie. Yes... don't come after me, I did watch the movie first!
I really related with Jo, Meg and Amy. Jo's sense of rebellion and ball of energy felt like home. Meg's older sister vibes and naivity to the world of love was relatable. Shout out to all my older siblings! And Amy, sweet Amy, really truelly just wanted to give Amy a big hug.
Ok hear me out. I didn't have a strong connection with Beth. I feel as if she had the least character development and was just perceived as a quiet, perfect, humble child. I appreciate all these qualities in her but I really wish we got to explore her character more. LIKE EVEN HANNAH SPOKE MORE THAN BETH. . COME ON... Tell me some of your flaws Beth, TELL ME!!!
I am truly glad Beth got better in the end. However was expecting the alternate reality as portrayed in the movie. Someone, please explain to me why the movie was so different!?
All in all this book was delightful and would recommend it to anyone craving a homely feeling.
Truly a pleasant read but the ending was too abrupt. So all in all, I give this book a 3.75/5. ⭐️
