BarkingMadRead@Bookwormjillk I never felt like he fit anywhere, he doesn‘t make sense in the family. I don‘t know if I‘m explaining it very well 🤣5mo
Bookwormjillk@BarkingMadRead I always resented his presence. They were getting along fine without him and then he shows up like they need his approval. (It was the times I know.)5mo
BarkingMadRead@Bookwormjillk I totally agree! Even as a kid, I was like, why are you here? They don‘t need you! 🤣🤣5mo
kspenmollYou all said it well- he seems so apart from them. This book, fictionalized account from Marmee‘s point of view helped, but in Alcott‘s real life he was like a child to be catered to- why Louisa went to work writing.
Clare-DragonflyI found it interesting that he mentions Amy taking drumsticks at dinner as though it‘s an example of her selflessness, but I thought the drumsticks were a desirable portion! Don‘t kids usually fight over the drumsticks? I remember one of the kids in the Little House books really wanting bear drumsticks! I‘m a lifelong vegetarian so this is a genuine question 😂5mo
BarkingMadRead@Clare-Dragonfly I hate the drumsticks 🤣 I want the breast, it‘s the white meat and it‘s so much better. I think it‘s down to personal preference(edited) 5mo
