To be perfectly honest, I didn’t know LMA had written this book. After reading it I realized that the “Little Women” movies I have seen combine this book with “Little Women”.

This book picks up with Meg’s wedding, which happens 3 years after “Little Women” ends. It goes on in much the same way as “Little Women”, telling girls lives, Meg as a young wife and mother, Amy the artist going abroad with family, Jo the favorite Aunty and struggling writer, and beloved sweet Beth, even though I’m pretty sure most of the free world knows what happens, I’m not going to say it here, just in case. (No spoilers)

When this book ends the girls are married women with babies. The ending sets up the next book in the series “Little Men”. This book is much like “Little Women”, the characters with their trials and faults, moral lessons learned. Just a sweet story, gently told.

About Belleza

I got the name Bella because my grandfather called me Suzabell. I use that as a username and my friends on the site started calling me Bella. Thus was born: Bella Foxx's Life, now known as "just a city girl" since I have made the big jump from the country and am now living in the City, UES. I like to make jewelry (check out my blog "Bella is creative" started April 17, 2008) and write. I like to do cross stitch and knit. I sew, I don't really enjoy it, but I enjoy the clothes. I like to read the Bible, books, magazines, online newspaper articles, blogs, jokes on candy wrappers, ads on the subway, billboards, backs of food boxes, lists of ingredients and recipes, cleaning directions, sayings on shirts. I post my reviews on "Just a girl, living, reading, watching, and writing", on Shelfari, Library Thing and Goodreads.. I am allergic to practically everything: grass, trees, weeds, animal dander, dust, mold, wheat, apples, nuts, fish and coconut. The fish and coconut are so serious I carry an Epi-pen and wear a Medic-Alert bracelet. And last but not least. I love the Yankees.
