I really wanted to like this book, but was disappointed. I have watched the movie, which was excellent, and that had my hopes high for this book. I think the movie encompasses not only this book but the sequels, because this book ends with
beth still alive and meg not yet married
. I just felt like nothing happened, it was very boring. Also the language used is very old-fashioned, as it was written in 1868, and I didn’t understand some phrases. There were misogynistic undertones, as being from that time it was expected that women stay at home and marry rich. It really wasn’t engaging. I read it from 14-16th Feb 2022 as part of the dymocks 2021 reading challenge for 'book based on truth'.
