This book was so beautiful, full of wonderful messages and quotes. It was a little boring and slow paced, otherwise perfect.

This was such a comforting, heart-warming and charming book. I really enjoyed reading Little Women, but I prefer the first part to the second part. It was great to see how all the March sisters chose their own paths in life and found their own happiness.

Read this so I can watch the most recent film adaptation. I see while people like this, but it's not for me. I did like the character studies, though, particularly Jo.
