Good Wives by Louisa May Alcott is the sequel to Little Women. I'm a fan, so I always love reading this one.

Not as good as Little Women, but still a great book! I'm impressed how Alcott was so ahead of her time!

odeofrhythm ðŸ˜ yes she was. I read some of her quotes and it gave me sneak peek of her thoughts. Which says so much about our emotions and independent woman. 5y

pilardib @irhythm_ YES! I read a little bit about her life and it made my reading experience a lot more meaningful 5y

I used to think I couldn't let you go, but I'm learning to feel that I don't lose you, that you'll be more to me than ever, and death can't part us, though it seems to.

I meant to post this days ago but things have been kinda crazy. Over the weekend my parents took a trip to Boston and the stopped to tour Orchard House, the place where Louisa May Alcott lived and wrote. Knowing what a fan I am, they brought me home these two beautiful books. â¤ï¸

I jump around in my reading a lot. Today, even though I‘ve finished nothing else I‘ve started, I‘m reading this. I had no idea it even existed until someone mentioned in a Litsy post â€” and I‘d read Little Men and Jo‘s Boys and all the others.

batsy Part of the confusion for me is also that most editions of Little Women incorporate Good Wives, I think. And I just found out fairly recently that I thought I'd read Little Women but it was only the abridged children's version ðŸ™ˆ 6y

KathyWheeler @batsy I wonder then if I‘ve actually read it as part of when I read Little Women because something I know happened has not yet happened in this book. My first reading of it was the abridged children‘s version you mentioned, so I possibly could have known about it from reading that? I‘m so confused, and it‘s been so long that I have no idea if I‘ve read this or not. (edited) 6y

batsy I know what you mean! In my case I'd read a standalone edition of Good Wives after reading the abridged LW, and haven't read the other two. So I told myself that 2019 will be my Little Women/Wives/Men/Boys year so that I can finally say that I've read them all ðŸ˜‚ 6y

KathyWheeler @batsy AND be positive that you‘ve read them too instead of confused.ðŸ˜„ 6y

Rummaging through my teenage bookcase at my mum's. #titlewithgood #aprilbookshowers @RealLifeReading

DeborahSmall My teen Hardy books are the same Q9 editions ? 8y

Oryx @DeborahSmall I was just thinking when I posted this, I'm sure these were only Â£1, but couldn't quite remember. Explains why I have nine of them. Purchased at Easons. 8y

DeborahSmall Haha yes mine too, I have a couple I bought in Menzies in Glasgow but as I moved here when I was 17 most of these are from Easons too. Hardy a favourite author yet I don't have any 'nice' editions of his books. I must start collecting some but because I physically read these ones I don't think I could take them off my shelves ðŸ’• hope you're having a good trip homeâ¤ï¸ 8y

GatheringBooks oohlala i didn't know about good wives! :) 8y

Oryx @DeborahSmall Thanks, I'm having a nice trip, mostly involving food so far. 8y

DeborahSmall @Oryx funny you say that all my trips home to Glasgow revolve around food! The chippy is different so I get maybe a black pudding or smoked sausage supper with pickles then the next night it's a curry from my favourite Chinese and I can never leave without at least 2 different Indian restaurants... 8y
