Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

5.0

Little Women was such a fun one to read, this book just feels so nostalgic to me even though i've never watched the movie or book until now?? each of the chapters were like cute little short stories about each of the girls lives filled with life lessons and morals.i'll admit i feel like part 1 is a little too long/ slightly boring but it got more interesting in part 2.
i think it took me about 80% of the way through before i finally came to like amy...i think she had good character development and honestly my heart broke for both amy and jo. i have so many conflicting thoughts because i feel like i understand everyone's POV's here.
like how amy has always felt second best to jo...and the fact that she had to watch laurie in love with her sister from the sidelines. and then jo, the girl who has a tough exterior but is actually a sensitive hopeless romantic + who loves to self sabotage. then there's laurie, who i think was in love with the idea of jo but not really jo herself, and was hurting both jo and amy in the procsss. idk it all hurts!!!!!
a part of me was really rooting for jo and laurie but i understand how amy and laurie made sense together...but like why her sister laurie? o why?! i would never marry a man who was in love with my sister, and don't even get me started on jo and professor bhaer og
AND BETH??? i don't wanna talk about it...like if she was gonna die she might as well have died when she was sick in the beginning of the book anyways....adding josephine to my list of girls names...
