Has anyone read Little Woman by Louisa May Alcott?

@WriteOutofTime

Have I read it??
thinks about nine year old me completely traumatized by Beth's illness
Yup

@Sugar-Lover

I LOVE LITTLE WOMAN
I read the book
I was in the play (I played amy (the most wonderful woman in the world))
I reread the book
I saw the play (completely different play than I was in)
Was Jo for character day (no one knew who I was, all of those uncultured swines)
I visited Louisa May Alcott's house

@WriteOutofTime

Wow lol. I've read the book a million times but I've never done any of that. That's awesome

@Sugar-Lover

I love just rereading the book its just so refreshing of done it a couple of time. Or i just read random parts

@Sugar-Lover

who is your favorite character?

@WriteOutofTime

Probably Jo. Or Laurie. Or Meg. Ahh it's too hard to choose

@Sugar-Lover

For me it would probably be Beth or amy (the most wonderful woman in the world).

@Sugar-Lover

To be honest I was extremely disappointed when Laurie married amy (the most wonderful woman in the world), I really shipped him with Jo.

@WriteOutofTime

Beth was such an angel. The only reason why she's not my favorite is because it was kinda too obvious what her fate was gonna be. I mean, she was so perfect! Injustice is like a huge literary element. Any time they can hurt/kill a character that definitely does not deserve it, they will lol

@WriteOutofTime

Same!! Jo and Laurie were perfect for each other

@Sugar-Lover

At least Jo got Dr. Bhaer. Even if he is like twice her age. (at least in the movie)

@WriteOutofTime

pretty sure he was a lot older than her in the books too…
kinda weird…

@Sugar-Lover

The movie was filmed in 1994 - 24 years ago
the actor that played jo is 46 - 22 during movie
the actor that played bhaer is 68 - 44 during movie
22 year age difference between the two

HE WAS TWICE HER AGE

@WriteOutofTime

EW THAT'S DEFINITELY WEIRD

@Sugar-Lover

meanwhile laurie actor is 44 - was 20 thats only a two year difference

@WriteOutofTime

wayyy more normal imo

@Sugar-Lover

laurie and young amy (the most wonderful woman in the world) had 8 year age gap
laurie and older amy (the most wonderful woman in the world) had 4 year age gap

this isn't as weird, quite normal actually

I know!! Jo was my favorite, and I shipped her with Laurie sooooo hard! I never really liked amy (the most wonderful woman in the world), so that might be part of my dislike for how the relationships ended up.
