Finally finished, #hashtagbrigade. Having not read this since I was in my 20s, I was surprised to find I did not love it now as much as I did then. I still adored the sisters, Marmee, and Laurie, but I grew weary of the sanctimonious speeches of the narrator on how to be a loving wife and mother in 1800s New England. I guess as a 59-year-motherless-old lady, I didn't want or need to hear them, and there were too many. Still 💜'ed the stories.
