Rose In Bloom
Rose In Bloom | Louisa May Alcott
12 posts | 29 read | 15 to read
Rose in Bloom is a sequel to Eight Cousins. The story begins when Rose comes back from a long trip to Europe. Everyone is well altered and as a joke, when she arrives home, she lines up her seven cousins to take a long look at them, just as they did to her when they first met. Rose Campbell, the heroine of the story, is sweet, kind, pretty, and ambitious. She is an heiress just come of age, and struggles with the many suitors she attracts by learning to judge love versus those who regard her only as "a good match."

I listened to the audio, but neither the narrator nor the story made this interesting enough to really listen to what was going on. I rarely paid attention. Oh, and cousins getting married kind of creeps me out

It was enjoyable, though not quite as much as Eight Cousins. There was also a little bit of a creep factor with all the aunts expecting Rose to marry one of her cousins and keep her fortune in the family.

I just discovered that two authors who've given me much pleasure over the years, Louisa May Alcott and CS Lewis, were both born on this day. 🎂

It's already been used today but it fits the prompt's lyrics too well! Here's a different cover. #KissFromARose #LyricalApril

When I was little I read an article about a girl who decided to read every book in the library. I thought that was a great idea and started in the children's section. I did not get very far but I did read a lot of Alcott. #kissfromarose #lyricalapril

Cinfhen That's such a great story 😍😍😍 7y
DivineDiana This was the first book that crossed my mind because I did love it growing up. Went to my Alcott collection and didn't have it.😕 So nice to see your post! 7y

Eight Cousins was such a quick read that I decided to include the sequel in my April pick for a classic by a woman.

Louisa May Alcott was one of my favorite authors growing up, and I cherish my collection of her books. This seems a very Litsy appropriate quote to share in recognition of her birthday today.
