I've been reviewing so many recent works, I just had to pick up 'Little Women' and curl up for an hour or so. You inspire me to write better reviews and read more for the sheer pleasure of it.

I think I would have liked it more. I do think it's hard to connect with such a sweet book when you've grown more cynical.Melissa (Avid Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02119628715475021774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481406859587493585.post-58693894541991954742011-04-18T09:41:23.999-04:002011-04-18T09:41:23.999-04:00I could never get my kids to read this, and now I ...I could never get my kids to read this, and now I think they're already too old and cynical (at 15 and 17)!
