Part 1 of Little Women was absolutely beautiful and I really do see why it's a classic. I seriously thought Beth was going to die and I was all prepared for it and everything, but in the end I was happy because she didn't. I didn't really get the big deal about Meg marrying Brooke. Just because he's poor doesn't make him awful and as long as she's happy who cares? Their mom said that like five times before and everyone believed her then, but when Meg accepted the proposal, her mom and Jo went a little weird...for lack of a better term. All I know is that the family has one issue: way too protective/clingy (especially Jo). I hope Jo marries Laurie, but I think she'll turn him down, at least that's what I've heard. Poor Laurie, it's obvious he likes Jo, though I don't think anyone really sees it... I'm about 2 chapters into part 2 at the moment and it's a little slow seeing as Alcott has to briefly recap three years, but i think it'll pick up soon. :)
I'm a little more than halfway done with the book now! Yay!
