Helllllo Cutting Edge!!! Cutting Edge is one of my favorite movies (it made it to my lore post) and this was right up that alley. The banter was bantering, the hockey team was friend goals, and the swearing parrot was lol funny. I loved Leo and Victoria’s growth through the book and the way they find their way back to each other.

Thank you @bookedwiththeemilys and the author for my gifted copy.

Reread the first 20% three times and gave up. Seems exciting and great concept but poorly executed and confusing at times.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!!! I love it so much that I want to start it all over again, and I’m not a rereader. This was witty, had the perfect amount of spice, the tension was AH-maxing! I loved all the family being involved.

Little Women is my favorite book of all time (I even named my daughter Meg) so I was thrilled to get the opportunity to read this. I wouldn’t classify this as a retelling, instead I’d say that it’s an expansion to the world of LW.
The exploration of “what could’ve” happened along side Jo’s version of events is a fabulous concept. It adds new light and depth to Meg, Beth, and Amy. I always came away from LW feeling sad for Beth, of course, neutral on Meg, and kind of negatively of Amy. Seeing these expansions of their lives added so much to Alcott’s original. I loved the strength that Meg gained from finding usefulness within her life as a wife and mother. It made me so happy to see Beth have a tender relationship in her time, and Amy was completely redeemed as a person seeking inspiration and love, not just money. Amy’s letters (to and from) throughout the book helped to see their relationships entwined.

The trio of narrators was *chef’s kiss*. Each woman had their own distinct story and needed different voices to share them.

This has earned a spot on my Little Women shelf!

This is just what I needed to read while I’m sick. It’s so sweet and heartwarming and has all the feels. This isn’t a romcom, know that. There are some serious issues and they are addressed so beautifully. This is the first I’ve read in this series and while I did feel like I could’ve used a little more insight into the other characters, it didn’t disrupt the story. Some of the lyrics are cringe but that only shows the growth!
