4.0

I finally read this classic! Maybe more of a 3.5 because it took me eight months to read it, but it is a very sweet story about love and family with a lot of moral elements. Each daughter reflects a side of femininity, and they reflect the best and worst parts of sisterhood. 

It is one of the few classics that I can tell was serialized. The chapters could be self contained and sometimes jumped around, but it worked for this story about a family growing up together.
