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.

What a lovely story. I would have loved to have listened to this. The only problem was that the narration was in a rather soft voice, and the characters voices were very loud. Where are the sound engineers on these? Incredibly jarring. You could either turn it down to not hear the loud character voices and then not be able to hear the narrator, or, you could turn it up to hear the narrator and have the character voices be far too loud. Oh well.

Captivating. Wholesome but not stodgy. Kept my interest and filled in many narratives from “Little Women.”

A classic .

The overall sorry is interesting. I find the upper-class pompousness a bit trying. The narration was well done. Worth the read.

I feel challenged and inspired to live better and brighter! I live the sweetness of the family relationships, the trials, temptations, sorrows and successes. So true to life.

Classic for good reason
