St. Louis Sisters: A 1970s Retelling of Little Women by Carly Berg
4.0
St. Louis Sisters tells the story of the March family from the viewpoint of Jo, one of the teenage daughters and an aspiring writer. There are sibling rivalries, babies, come-of-age antics, prison time, and general craziness one can find in many families.
The novel is a slice-of-life kind of story. It's not an action-packed thriller but more like an intricate tapestry that you need time to look at and admire. Berg's writing is rich and full of depth while also being irreverent and real.
I haven't read the original book it's based on, so I'm not sure how closely or loosely this storyline follows it, but if you like finding yourself immersed in moments of time with other people's lives, this might be the book for you.
