This book is about four young black sisters who come of age during the American civil war. This book is based on the classic novel Little women.
It is set in North Carolina, 1863. As the American Civil War rages on, the Freedmen's Colony of Roanoke Island is blossoming, a haven for the recently emancipated. Black people have begun building a community of their own, a refuge from the shadow of the old life. It is where the March family has finally been able to safely put down roots with four young daughters:
Meg, a teacher who longs to find love and start a family of her own.
Jo, a writer whose words are too powerful to be contained.
Beth, a talented seamstress searching for a higher purpose.
Amy, a dancer eager to explore life outside her family's home.
As the four March sisters come into their own as independent young women, they will face first love, health struggles, heartbreak, and new horizons. But they will face it all together.
๐ญMy review:๐ป
I wanted to read this book because I am a big fan of the original novel Little woman. I also love the cover it really drew me and it's so pretty and fits the story so well. I really enjoyed this version, it was so different yet so the same. I think the author did a really good job on the story, I think her writing is so beautiful. The details really made you feel the story. I enjoyed the book and I'm very happy I got to read it.
I give it 5 stars โญโญโญโญโญ
