This book was a beautiful read because I thought it was very worthwhile watching these four sisters find their way through life while facing many obstacles. This novel also touches upon the fact that women were not recognized as equal in…

I'm glad to have finally read this. Though the intrusive narrator of 19th-century fiction is present and accounted for here, often putting in its two cents' worth of moral reflection, Alcott is a good enough writer that these offer only…

I first read this book many years ago and it left a lasting impression. I enjoyed the story even more than I remembered. The many movie adaptations just don’t do the novel justice. Strongly recommended.

Classic novel from 1868 detailing the lives and loves of four New England women from their teen years through early marriage days. Representative writing style of the time period in which it was written. Today's editors would cut at least…

I decided to read this because I know it's a classic of American literature. I am also well aware that the social mores of the time it was written are very different than today. However, I found that the conduct-book aspects of the novel…

This book is a total classic! I felt as though I could have done without some of the “lessons” especially in the first part of the book, which is why I took off half a star. But all in all, I loved it!

I loved this book and the simplicity of each story. The setting itself was in such a comfortable, small town and the stories itself were wholesome yet passionate. (SPOILER) In the end, when the four girls were able to reunite with their…

Louisa May Alcott grew up poor in the mid-18th century New England with her three sisters, so it is no coincidence that her most famous novel - "Little Women" is about a family very similar to her own. "Little Women" tells the story of…

I give up. It's been more than two weeks, and this book has bludgeoned me into oblivion with its banality. In the course of three-hundred and fifty pages (where I gave up), Louisa May Alcott has completely failed to make me care about any…
