Thank you to @lindaepsteinauthor @allymalinenko @lizparkerwrites @kensingtonbooks and @netgalley for the #gifted e-book!
As a child, Little Women held a special place in my heart, so I was eagerly anticipating this new release that delves into the lives of Beth, Meg, and Amy. Each sister's story is crafted by each one of the talented authors, drawing inspiration from the real life of Louisa May Alcott and her sisters.
In this captivating narrative, Jo embarks on an adventure in New York, while Amy fervently perfects her artistic skills and searches for the right husband in Europe. Meg, though married and a mother of twins, seeks a deeper purpose beyond her roles as wife and mother, and Beth confronts her illness at a tender age with remarkable strength.
The authors weave together each sister's story, creating a reading experience that truly brings the characters to life. The sisters individual journeys are distinct yet interconnected, allowing readers to witness their personal struggles and triumphant moments. Through the heartfelt letters exchanged between the sisters, we gain invaluable insight into their relationships and the depth of their shared hopes and fears. I found the negative portrayal of Marmee, especially her relationship with Meg, somewhat disappointing.
If you're longing for a exploration of the untold stories of the March sisters, look no further. This book is set to be published on February 25, 2025.
