Thank you to BookishFirst for picking me to win this book in a raffle on their website last year!!
I kept putting this off cause i had a feeling i wouldnt like it and surprisingly i was right this book was just as bad as Cherish Farrah was.
The Charcters were OK but none of them were my favorites especially when Bethany C Morrow took it upon herself to change the character names from what The original Author Louisa May Alcott wrote them as from experience. This is why i RARELY read books based on old classics cause classics SHOULD NOT be rewritten.
The Setting was beautifully described which made me feel like i was actually in Roanoke but that's all that was good about this book.
Things i disliked about this book:
Saying that one Ethnicity is better then the other in the Original Book is WRONG, EVERYONE works hard to have what they want in life.
Changing the Character Names.
Placing the Book 2 years BEFORE the Original was set.
Chapters 1-5 were very dull compared to 5-14.
Overall an OK Retelling of Little Women but it could of been way better!! If Louisa was still alive she would of been disappointed by this and how Bethany basically tried to write off Louisa's version!!
I gave Bethany's books 2 chances and im finding her books arent for me or she needs to improve her writing, storytelling and perspective of others before i'll read anymore if her books!!
