I noticed there isn't a separate thread for Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. Please light your opions on it.
Its plot is not complex and on a whole it has a happy ending. It will not throw those thrillings concerning humanity and society into your heart, as Les Miserables will do. But its so sweat. I will always keep this book at the bottom of my drawer. At night, take out for reading, with family, around the fireplace. It will always make you smile. IMO.
Your opinions? As I am a Chinese, I don't know much about the influence this novel of family theme has brought about among American families. I will be very grateful if you could provide with some information.

There is a whole forum for Little Women if you check the author list :)

I like that book very much. I think it doesn't have just one big plotline, but several smaller plotlines that are put together to make one book.

I like the way the four sisters do things together. It makes me jealous because I have no sisters, only three brothers :D

Oh, I LOVE the book Little Women, it is my favorite book! The 1994 adaption starring Winona Ryder is also my all-time favorite movie.
