A classic novel from 1868 about a four sisters. Now when I was younger my mother suggested to me to read the novel so I did. But I started it and never finished because I just found it to be terribly boring. But when I went to my first Children’s Literature class I found out that I would have to revisit this lovely novel. I thought I might enjoy it more because I'm older now. But sadly this was not the case. The sisters are way to prim and proper for my taste and yes I do realize it was written in a time period where people acted like this but I just didn’t enjoy it.
For this reason I give it one x and one checkmark.
But if you’re wondering why I gave this novel one checkmark it was because at times Alcott tugged at my heart strings and I laughed at some of the antics the girls, especially Jo March got up to. There were sad moments where I felt incredible sorry and bad for the girls and their were tend and emotional moments between the sisters that drew me in.
It’s very easy to follow and this is just my opinion. I urge you to check the novel out because although I did not enjoy Little Women. Alcott wrote two other novels which follow some of the characters in Little Women the novels are called: Little Men and Jo's Boys. Which I enjoyed a lot (at least when I read them)
I realize I should have some outro saying but at the moment I cannot think of one so for now BYE.
ps. If anyone has suggestions of books please share them with me!
