Classics Club #21: Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

Little Women by Louisa May AlcottI finished Little Women five months ago, but am only now getting around to writing this review. I have to admit that my memory of reading the book has faded into a vague sense of enjoyment with few details about what I liked or disliked. That may have nothing to do with the book, since I have been quite busy since then. However, I remember thinking that while the book was pleasant, I enjoyed it less than The Secret Garden but more than She: A History of Adventure, which were the last two Classics Club titles I read. I liked the novel, but not enough to read anything else by Alcott.

    Although I like ‘Little Women’ very much, and have watched every movie adaptation there is to watch, the book written by her that I have re-read the most was ‘Jack and Jill.’ In fact, I’ve got it as a re-read on my Classics Club List. I am hoping it will stand the test of time!
