I really really enjoyed this!! Very much the definition of a cozy book and is the perfect read for this time of year! I would’ve probably given it 5 stars if *spoiler alert* (do I need to put a spoiler warning for an almost 150 year old book? 🤔) Jo hadn’t ended up getting married. I know that the publishers pushed for her to end up with someone (which is annoying 🙃) but she is so aroace coded and I feel like it took so much away from her character 🤷🏻‍♀️ I also don’t understand how anyone thinks she should’ve ended up with Laurie either because 1. They never would’ve worked and 2. She didn’t need to end up with anyone 🤷🏻‍♀️ but anyway, I totally understand why this is such a beloved classic and I’m glad I finally read it! 🥰 now onto watch the 2009 adaptation!
