Work detailsLittle Women by Louisa May Alcott (1868)
All "little women" should read Little Women. I know it's a time gone by, but there are timeless lessons and "sisterhood" traits here. (  ) bcrowl399 | May 15, 2013 |  Chapter Book: This tale of four sisters teachers us all about love and independence as each sister tries to fit in society. The sisters may not come from the wealthiest family, but they are happy because they have one another. Jo the oldest sister more than anything is out to prove a point and show her feminism and independence. The neighbor boy Teddy while appearing to be the best friend, has other ideas in mind. KristinPetersMoreno | May 13, 2013 | I hate this book. I hate hate hate hate hate this book. This book is INSIPID. This book makes me feel like I need a trip to the dentist after merely looking at the cover. I hate this book. I hate Jo, and her supposed tomboyishness, and the fact that she is the most flat, and dull, and stupid character I've ever come across. I hate Amy, because she's a vapid idiot who contributes nothing to the story. I hate Meg, even though I don't remember anything about her. I HATE Beth more than them all combined because she is so holy-holy, and meek, and perfect, and then she goes and dies (except in the versions where she doesn't) and everyone loves her even MORE afterwards. Excuse me while I retch. Why must this book be so vomitous? It even starts off in this fashion - let us give our dinner to the poor, because we are so wonderful! Fuck off. Just... fuck off. If there was ever such a saintly family, I hope I never meet them. My boyfriend's diabetic and we must watch his blood sugar levels...
