I’ve built a wall around me,
never letting anybody inside and trying not to venture outside myself.

Good Wives
Author: Louisa May Alcott
Book: 2/4
Genre: fiction
Summary: Good Wives is the second book following Little Women, taking place a few years after the beginning of Little Women. The March girls and Laurie are becoming young adults, and begin to face an assortment of trails that come with growing up, including a tragedy that changes their lives forever. The girls soon find their own happiness, each in unexpected ways, making this coming of age story so sweet.
Review: *POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT* I try to keep this blog as spoiler free as possible, so I will be talking about some details of the book to help clarify how it follows Little Women without using giveaway details! When I first began reading this book, one thing I did not understand at first was that it does not pick up right where Little Women left off. Instead, it overlaps, beginning when all four March girls are growing into young women. I hope that makes sense, if you have any questions feel free to comment, direct message, ask/inbox me! I adored this book, it was sweet, heartfelt and touching. Watching each character find their way through the world and blossoming in their happiness made me fall in love with Alcott’s story.
Rating: 5/5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Keep reading 💐
