Marmee by Sarah MillerMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Maybe 4.5 stars. Little Women is one of my favorite books so while I was excited to try this, I was also slightly skeptical. Sometimes retellings are not very well done. However, I am happy to say that that is not the case with this retelling from Marmee’s perspective. I don’t know if I would’ve appreciated it in my younger years, but now as a mother of three, perhaps Marmee is the one I can most relate to. The author retails the story from Marmee’s perspective, and it is believable, charming, and adds layers to her character that were not explored in the original. It was perfectly executed, and if you are a fan of Little Women, I highly recommend it!
