Little Women


Well, I am near to finishing up the novel, and I am primarily sharing this post because I think most of you have watched the movie or read the book... but if you have done neither and plan to in the future, STOP reading my post now.

It has been very detailed and at times too detailed, and I have mainly kept on reading with high hopes for Jo and Laurie to get together. (Honestly, I didn't expect the vocabulary to be so.. um.. advanced. Well, I am sure I sound unintelligent, but really I had never read some of the words in that book before! haha) Anyways, sad to say that last night when I read that Laurie and Amy ended up getting married I cried! MISERABLE! Of course I know everything will end up just fine with Jo and whoever, but it is awful that Louisa Alcott (the author) persuaded me to believe so heartily that they would end up together. (It just might have been mine own doing too :) ) I am going to finish it today with a still bitter taste in my mouth of the whole situation, but I am sure it will probably sweeten up with a happy ending of some sort.
