About this listen

Good Wives continues the story of the Little Women, the March sisters Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy, as they approach womanhood. Meg longs to begin her new life with John Brook, though they can never be rich; Jo returns to devote herself to literature, and to Beth, whose illness has left her weak but whose serenity shines through the household; and Amy has gone to Aunt March, bribed with the offer of drawing lessons. Laurie remains irrepressible, with his high spirits and sense of fun, though his pursuit of Jo’s affections seems unlikely to succeed…

Heartwarming

A slice of life in the March family.
Love the girls' individual stories and the language. Great narration.

Charming, but.....

I loved listening to Little Women but found that the early chapters of Good Wives overlapped with it and repeated parts of the story rather than following on from it. Disappointed!

Good Wives by Louisa May Alcott

I like how each book is a little different, this one though it provides a picture of what’s happening you can see it almost like you’re there, it was written in 1869 and it’s still one of the most popular books and I can see why. For they were no longer little girls they were little women.
