I am finally done. At 1,300+ pages of story, this book took a little over a week to read; granted, I could have been done with it sooner but games, movies, outings, and school assignments seemed to be more inviting than reading it. Just some impressions: 1. The March sisters are very bratty and ru...

Here I am, further proving there is something wrong with me. On paper (hee, hee), I should love this book.

The book follows four sisters living in New England: Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy,...

This is really lovely story about family. I found the sister dynamic to be heartfelt and realistic. I know that some people think that the sisters' fights were a little intense, but in my opinion that is how families fight. Sometimes you can say worse things to your siblings than you can say to your...
