It's a sweet book but feels a bit like a sermon at times

Little Women is my all-time favorite book. This book shows the reader how the girls in the story become real ladies without giving up their hopes and dreams. The author depicts real-life circumstances, good and bad. It has humor and love, hardships and trials. Most of all, the characters have common sense and good morals. This is the type of book to be read while being cuddled up with a blanket by the fire, all nice and cozy. If anyone wants a good, solid book to read while learning valuable lessons, I recommend this book 100%!

It's very clean. It seems like some people are putting tags in without any reason at all.

I loved the characters in Little Women; they all felt like 4 distinct characters with personalities. I loved that Marmee was a flawed character rather than perfect. The Christmas at the end of the book was so heartwarming and really captured that what Christmas is about is gathering with your loved ones.

The characters in Little Women are on the side of pro-slavery.
