March Sisters: On Life, Death, and Little Women by Jenny Zhang, Carmen Maria Machado, Jane Smiley, Kate Bolick

Go to review page

emotional informative reflective medium-paced
Mixed feelings overall- I adored Amy’s essay, thought Beth’s was incredibly interesting, thought Meg’s was good but not as about Meg as I would have hoped. Jo’s essay i did not enjoy at all. It seems like the author was taking her hatred of the ideas of womanhood that she grew up with out on the wrong source. Also why was there so much Amy hate… especially right before an essay about how complex a character Amy is!
