A review by jmpitchford
Jo's Boys by Louisa May Alcott

5.0

Jo's Boys had a different feel than the other books to me. While I enjoyed the romances and lessons the kids learned, there was quite a bit of darkness, as well. At first, there were a lot of characters which, while I had seen before, I couldn't quite picture all of them in my mind until the middle of the book, when each one is given at least one chapter of his/her own. Seeing how Jo has developed since Little Women was fun. As a kid, I read Little Women over and over, but coming into Jo's Boys as an adult, I felt this was a mostly satisfying end to the saga, though there are a few endings I wish could have gone differently.
